HD 89571 (HR 4062) is a binary star[12] located in the northern circumpolar constellation Camelopardalis. It is faintly visible to the naked eye with a combined apparent magnitude of 5.51[2] and is estimated to be 142 light years[1] away from the Solar System. However, it is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 3.5 km/s.[4]

The primary has a stellar classification of A9 V,[3] indicating that it is an ordinary A-type main-sequence star. David S. Evans gave it a slightly warmer class of A6 V[13] while Cowley et al. classified it as F0 IV,[14] indicating a F-type subgiant. Nevertheless, the two components take roughly 2 years to orbit each other at a mean separation of 14.2 mas.[6]

The components have masses of 1.69 M and 0.38 M,[7] with the latter being a probable M-type star. HD 89571 has a radius of 1.79 R[1] and a luminosity of 8.4 L.[8] This yields an effective temperature of 7,535 K,[10] giving a white hue. It is estimated to be 710 million years old[7] and spins rapidly with a projected rotational velocity of 134 km/s;[10] it has a near solar metallicity, equating to an iron abundance 110% that of the Sun.[11]
