HD 75116, also known as HR 3491, is a solitary, orange hued star in the southern circumpolar constellation Volans, the flying fish. It has an apparent magnitude of 6.31,[2] placing it near the limit for naked eye visibility. Parallax measurements from the Gaia spacecraft place the star relatively far at a distance of 930 light years.[1] It appears to be approaching the Solar System, having a heliocentric radial velocity of −17.5 km/s.[5]

This is a red giant with a spectral classification of K3 III:,[3] but there is uncertainty behind the class. Gaia Data Release 3 stellar evolution models place it on the red giant branch. It has 2.29 times the Sun’s mass[7] but has expanded to 52.2 times its girth.[8] HD 75116 radiates 431 times the luminosity of the Sun[9] from its swollen photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,124 K.[11] It rotates slowly like many giant stars, having a projected rotational velocity <1 km/s.[12]
