There hasn't been much agreement on Nu Telescopii's [[spectral classification]]. It was initially categorized as [[Am star]], with a classification of kA4mF3IV:<ref name = Hoffleit1953/> .

However, Nu Telescopii was shown not to have a peculiar spectrum and was given a class of A9 Vn,<ref name = Evans1966/> indicating that it is an [[A-type main-sequence star]] displaying broad (nebulous) [[absorption lines]] due to rapid rotation.

Nu Telescopii (ν Telescopii) is a solitary[11] star in the southern constellation Telescopium. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 5.33,[4] allowing it to be faintly visible to the naked eye. The object is relatively close at a distance of 169 light years but is approaching the Solar System with a heliocentric radial velocity of about −12 km/s.[5]

There hasn't been much agreement on Nu Telescopii's spectral classification. It was initially categorized as Am star, with a classification of kA4mF3IV:[12] . This indicates that the object has the calcium K-lines of an A4 star and the metallic lines of a F3 subgiant. However, Nu Telescopii was shown not to have a peculiar spectrum and was given a class of A9 Vn,[13] indicating that it is an A-type main-sequence star displaying broad (nebulous) absorption lines due to rapid rotation. It has since been classified as A7 with either a blended luminosity class of a giant star or subgiant (III/IV)[3] or only subgiant (IV).[14]

with of an evolving A-type star with a stellar classification of A7 III–IV.[15] Here, the luminosity class of III–IV indicates mixed traits of a subgiant and a giant star. It has about 1.85[7] times the mass of the Sun and 2.1[8] times the Sun's radius. Based upon its motion through space, it is a candidate for membership in the IC 2391 supercluster.[16]

There is a faint magnitude 9.3 companion star at an angular separation of 102 arc seconds along a position angle of 333°, as of 2010.[17]
