1 Arietis is the Bayer designation for a double star[3] in the northern constellation of Aries. The pair have a combined visual magnitude of 5.86,[2] making it faintly visible to the naked eye. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 5.57 mas,[1] the distance to the two stars is approximately 590 light-years (180 parsecs). The brighter component is a magnitude 6.40 giant star with a stellar classification of K1 III. The companion star, at an angular separation of 2.873 arcseconds from the primary, is a magnitude 7.20 A-type main sequence star with a classification of A6 V.[3]
