HD 200044 (HR 8044) is a solitary[13] star in the equatorial constellation Delphinus. It has an apparent magnitude of 5.7,[2] allowing it to be faintly seen with the naked eye. The object is located 598 light years away,[1] but is approaching the Solar System with a heliocentric radial velocity of −15.07 km/s.[7]

HD 200044 has a spectral classification of M3 IIIab,[4] indicating that its an ageing red giant. It is currently on the asymptotic giant branch and is fusing hydrogen and helium in shells around an inert carbon core.[3] As a consequence, it has expanded to 58 times the radius of the Sun and is now radiating with a luminosity over 500 times greater than that of the Sun. HD 200044's large size and high luminosity yield an effective temperature of 3,707 K, giving it a red glow. HD 200044 is suspected to be a variable star with an amplitude of 0.05 magnitudes.[6]

There is a 10th magnitude optical companion separated 49.3″ away and at a position angle of 337° as of 2014. However, the separation is increasing due to HD 200044's high proper motion.[14]
