K-type giant star in the constellation Cancer
1 Cancri is a single[ 2] star in thezodiac constellation ofCancer , positioned near the border withGemini at a distance of around 467 light years from the Sun. It is barely visible to the naked eye as a dim, orange-hued star with anapparent visual magnitude of 5.97. The object is moving further from the Earth with a heliocentricradial velocity of +14 km/s.
This is anevolved giant star with astellar classification of K3− III,[ 3] [ 3] angular diameter of the star measured from alunar occultation is± 0.6 mas [ 9] radius of the Sun . It is radiating 199 times theSun's luminosity from its enlargedphotosphere at aneffective temperature ofK
