HD 20003 is a star in the southern constellation Hydrus. With an apparent visual magnitude of 8.39,[2] this yellow-hued star is much too faint to be visible to the naked eye. It is located at a distance of 136.6 light years from the Sun based on parallax. HD 20003 is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −16 km/s,[1] and is predicted to come to within 97 light-years in around 1.4 million years from now.[2]

This object is an ordinary, G-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of G8 V.[3] It is around five[4] billion years old with a magnetic activity cycle lasting about ten years[7] and a projected rotational velocity of 2.2 km/s.[4] The star has 94%[4] of the mass of the Sun and 92%[1] of the Sun's radius. The metallicity of this star is similar to the Sun, if slightly higher.[2] It is radiating 70.5% of the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,510 K.[1]

The survey in 2015 have ruled out the existence of any stellar companions at projected distances above 18 astronomical units.[8]
