HD 133002 (HR 5596) is a possible binary

light years from the Sun.[1] If it was instead positioned at a distance of 33 ly (10 pc), this would be a second magnitude star.[5] The system is drifting closer with a heliocentric radial velocity of −44 km/s.[5]

This is a

weak line star. Based on its G-band strengths, it would we given a class of G0, and based on its metal lines a class of G1.[3]

It is estimated to have 51% greater mass than the Sun, and is younger with an age of around 2.8 billion years.

subgiant star that is in the process of evolving away from the main sequence.[13] The effective temperature of the star's photosphere is 5,515 K,[1] giving it the yellow-white hue of a G-type star.[14]

This star has been examined for evidence of an

AU from the primary, which suggests an orbital period of roughly 700 years. At present, there is insufficient observational data available to determine orbital elements.[9]
