104 Herculis is a solitary[9] variable star[10] located around 560[1] light years away from the Sun in the northern constellation of Hercules.[7] It has the variable star designation V669 Herculis and the Bayer designation A Herculis, while 104 Herculis is the Flamsteed designation. This object is visible to the naked eye as a dim, red-hued point of light with a baseline apparent visual magnitude of 4.96.[2] It is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −1.2 km/s.[2]

This is an aging red giant star on the asymptotic giant branch[3] with a stellar classification of M3 III.[4] It is a semiregular variable[5] with an amplitude of 0.14 in the B-band[11] and pulsation periods of 22.9 and 24.0 days.[12] Having exhausted the hydrogen at its core, the star has expanded to 86[1] times the Sun's radius. It is radiating 1,202[1] times the Sun's luminosity from its swollen photosphere at an effective temperature of 3,535 K.[6]
