HD 193002 (HR 7758; NSV 25094) is a solitary red hued star located in the southern constellation Telescopium. It has an apparent magnitude of 6.26, [2] placing it near the limit for naked eye visibility, even under ideal conditions. The object is located relatively far at a distance of 1,030 light years based on Gaia DR3 parallax measurements, [1] but it is approaching the Solar System with a heliocentric radial velocity of −9.1 km/s. [7] At its current distance, HD 193002's brightness is diminished by 0.17 magnitudes due to interstellar dust [15] and it has an absolute magnitude of −0.93. [8]
HD 193002 has a stellar classification of M0/1 III, [4] indicating that it is an evolved red giant with the characteristics of an M0 and M1 giant star. It is currently on the asymptotic giant branch, [3] generating fusion via hydrogen and helium shells around an inert carbon core. It has a comparable mass to the Sun [9] but it has expanded to 84.5 times the radius of the Sun. [10] It radiates 711 times the luminosity of the Sun [11] from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 3,972 K. [12] HD 193002 is slightly metal enriched with an iron abundance 118% that of the Sun's or [Fe/H] = +0.07. [9]
HD 193002 was first suspected to be variable in 1997 by the Hipparcos satellite. [17] It fluctuates between 6.34 and 6.39 in the Hipparcos passband. [6]
