HD 30080, also known as HR 1509, is a solitary,[15] orange hued star located in the southern constellation Caelum, the chisel. It has an apparent magnitude of 5.66,[2] allowing it to be faintly visible to the naked eye. Parallax measurements from Gaia DR3 place the object at a distance of 612 light years. It appears to be approaching the Solar System with a heliocentric radial velocity of −3.8 km/s.[5] Eggen (1989) lists it as a member of the thick disk population.[11]

HD 30080 is an evolved red giant with a stellar classification of K3 III.[3] It is currently on the red giant branch,[1] generating energy by fusing a hydrogen shell around an inert helium core. It has 116% the mass of the Sun[7] but has expanded to 41.6 times its girth.[8] It radiates 299 times the luminosity of the Sun[9] from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,262 K.[10] HD 30080 has a solar metallicity[11] and spins slowly with a projected rotational velocity of <1 km/s.[12]
