HD 200661 (HR 8067) is a solitary star in the equatorial constellation Equuleus. It has an apparent magnitude of 6.41, placing it near the max naked eye visibility. The star is situated at a distance of 430 light years [1] but is approaching with a heliocentric radial velocity of −12.1 km/s. [6]
HD 200661 has a stellar classification of K0 III, [4] indicating that the object is an early K-type giant star that is on the horizontal branch. [3] It has an angular diameter of 0.75±0.05 mas, which yields a diameter 10.62 [9] times that of the Sun at its estimated distance. At present HD 200661 has 1.74 times the Sun’s mass, [8] and shines at 51.3 times the luminosity of the Sun [10] from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,740 K, [10] giving it a yellow-orange glow.
