HD 163376 is a single[8] star in the southern constellation of Scorpius. It has a ruddy hue and is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.88.[2] The distance to this star, as determined using parallax measurements, is approximately 450 light years. It is drifting further from the Sun with a radial velocity of about 4 km/s.[2] The absolute magnitude of this star is −0.82.[2]
This object is an aging red giant star with a stellar classification of M0 III,[3] having exhausted the supply of hydrogen at its core then cooled and expanded. At present it has a radius around 61 times the radius of the Sun.[6] It is a suspected variable star of unknown type, with a brightness that has been measured ranging from 4.94 down to 4.98.[4] The star is radiating 832 times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 3,972 K.[6]
