A tight binary star composed of unequally bright stars. It consists of a red giant with a brightness of 4.4 mag and a companion with a brightness of 8 mag. Both components are located 420 light-years away. When observed with a small telescope, it may be difficult to distinguish the fainter star due to the overpowering brightness of the brighter component.
