HD 215152 is a star in the zodiac constellation of Aquarius. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 8.13,[2] meaning it is too faint to be seen with the naked eye. Parallax measurements provide distance estimates of around 70 light years.[1] The star has a relatively high proper motion,[7] moving across the sky at an estimated 0.328 arc seconds per year along a position angle of 205°.[8]

A 2015 survey ruled out the existence of any additional stellar companions at projected distances from 6 to 145 astronomical units.[9]

This star has a stellar classification of K3 V,[3] which indicates that it is an ordinary K-type main sequence star. Based upon observation of regular variations in chromospheric activity, it has a rotation period of 36.5±1.6 days.[10] Stellar models give an estimated mass of around 76% of the Sun.[5] It has a slightly lower metallicity than the Sun,[5] and thus has a lower abundance of elements other than hydrogen and helium. The effective temperature of the stellar atmosphere is about 4,803 K, giving it the orange-hued glow of an ordinary K-type star.[11]

HD 215152 is a candidate for possessing a debris disk—a circumstellar disk of orbiting dust and debris. This finding was made through the detection of an infrared excess at a wavelength of 70 μm by the Spitzer Space Telescope. The detection has a level of certainty.[12]
