HD 24040 is a star with two orbiting exoplanets in the equatorial constellation of Taurus. The star is too faint to be viewed with the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 7.50.[2] Based on parallax measurements, it is located at a distance of 152 light years. However, it is drifting closer to the Sun with a radial velocity of −9.4 km/s.[2]

This is a G-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of G2V.[3] It is a metal-rich star with an age of around 4.8 billion years. The star has 14% more mass than the Sun and 128% of the Sun's radius. It is radiating 1.8 times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,917 K.[4] The star is spinning slowly with a projected rotational velocity of 2.4 km/s.[5]
