HD 45866
HD 45866, also known as HR 2363 is a solitary star located in the northern circumpolar constellation Camelopardalis. It is faintly visible to the naked eye as an orange-hued star with an apparent magnitude of 5.72. Gaia DR3 parallax measurements place it 726 light years away and it is currently approaching the Solar System with a heliocentric radial velocity of −16.6 km/s. At its current distance, HD 45866's brightness is diminished by 0.26 magnitudes due to interstellar dust. It has an absolute magnitude of −0.89
This is an evolved red giant with a stellar classification of K5 III. It has 2.34 times the mass of the Sun but it has expanded to nearly 50 times the radius of the Sun at an age of 1.15 billion years. It radiates 468 times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,207 K. It has an iron abundance 78% of the Sun's, making it slightly metal deficient.
