HD 63399 is an orange hued star located in the southern constellation Puppis, the poop deck. It has an apparent magnitude of 6.45,[2] placing it near the limit for naked eye visibility. Based on parallax measurements from Gaia DR3,[1] the object is estimated to be 445 light years distant. It appears to be receding with a spectroscopic radial velocity of 28.5 km/s.[6] At its current distance, HD 63399 is diminished by 0.29 magnitudes due to interstellar dust.[13]
HD 63399 is a red giant star that is currently on the red giant branch,[3] fusing hydrogen in a shell around its core. It has a stellar classification of K1 III.[4] At present it has a mass ranging from 1.3 to 1.7 times the mass of the Sun,[8][9] depending on the study. HD 63399 has expanded to 10.8 times its girth[10] and now radiates 54.8 times the luminosity of the Sun[6] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,761 K.[11] The star has an iron abundance 13% below solar levels, making it slightly metal deficient.[3]
