HD 24479 (or H Camelopardalis), is a single[9] star located in the constellation Camelopardalis. It is also known as HR 1204. The star is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.95.[2] Based upon an annual parallax shift of 9.04±0.29 mas as seen from Earth's orbit,[1] it is located around 360 light years from the Sun.

In 1932, HD 24479 was identified as a Be star by Olin C. Wilson at the Mount Wilson Observatory.[10] In 1969, Cowley et al. listed a stellar classification of B9.5 V,[4] matching a B-type main-sequence star. Slettebak (1982) gave it a class of B9 IV,[3] suggesting this instead an evolving subgiant star. It has an estimated 3.14[6] times the mass of the Sun and about 3.1[7] times the Sun's radius. The star is radiating 156[6] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 10,520 K.[6]
