X Trianguli Australis is a star in the southern constellation Triangulum Australe. It is a red-hued carbon star with an average apparent magnitude of +5.89. It is approximately 1173 light years (360 parsecs) from Earth,[7] though this could vary by up to 200 light years.[8] It is a semi-regular variable star with two periods of around 385 and 455 days, and is of spectral type C5.5(Nb).[9] It ranges from magnitudes 5.03 to 6.05.[10] Its designation is from the variable star designation developed by German astronomer Friedrich Wilhelm Argelander.

It is a cool star, with estimates of its surface temperature ranging from 2200 to 2700 Kelvin.[8] A giant star, its diameter is 400 times that of the sun, and if placed at the center of the Solar System would stretch out to 30% further than Mars' orbit. Its absolute magnitude is −2.0.[8]
