Gamma1 Fornacis, which is Latinized from γ1 Fornacis, is a star in the constellation Fornax, positioned less than a degree south of the border with Eridanus.[6] The star has a golden hue and can be a challenge to view with the naked eye even in good seeing conditions, having an apparent visual magnitude of 6.15.[2] It is located at a distance of approximately 367 light years from the Sun based on parallax,[1] but is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −7 km/s.[4] The star has an absolute magnitude of +0.5.[4]

The stellar classification of γ1 Fornacis is G9 III,[3] which indicates this is an aging giant star[4] that has exhausted the supply of hydrogen at its core, then cooled and expanded away from the main sequence. It is an estimated 3.4[2] billion years old with a metallicity that is close to solar, indicating the abundances of heavy elements are similar to those in the Sun. It has 1.65[2] times the mass of the Sun and has expanded to ten[1] times the Sun's radius. The star is radiating 51[1] times the Sun's luminosity from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,657 K.[2]

γ1 Fornacis has three visual companions listed in the Washington Double Star Catalog. These are faint 11th - 13th magnitude stars at 11' - 56' distance from γ1.[7] Gamma2 Fornacis is a 5th magnitude star located four degrees to the south.[6]
