HD 196737, also designated as HR 7893, is a solitary orange hued star[17] located in the southern constellation Microscopium. It has an apparent magnitude of 5.47,[2] allowing it to be faintly visible to the naked eye. The object is located relatively close at a distance of 241 light years based on Gaia DR3 parallax measurements,[1] but is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 14.2 km/s.[6] At its current distance, HD 196737's brightness is diminished by 0.14 magnitudes due to interstellar dust.[18] It has an absolute magnitude of 1.17.[7]

This is an evolved giant star with a stellar classification of K1 III.[4] HD 196737 is estimated to be 3.4 billion years old based on asteroseismologic measurements,[8]enough for it to cool and expand onto the red giant branch; it is now fusing a hydrogen shell around an inert helium core.[3] It has 1.4 time the mass of the Sun[8] and an enlarged radius of 11.5 R☉.[9] It radiates 43.7 times the luminosity of the Sun[10] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,681 K.[12] HD 196737 has a solar metallicity — what astronomers dub chemical elements heavier than helium. The star has a projected rotational velocity too low to be measured accurately.[14]
