V830 Tauri is a T Tauri star located 425.2 light-years (130.4 pc) away from the Sun in the constellation Taurus.[6] This star is very young, with an age of only 2 million years,[6][7] compared to the Sun's age, which is 4.6 billion years. Typical for a young stars, it exhibits strong flare activity, with three flares detected during a 91-day observation period in 2016.[8]
