Delta2 Telescopii is a blue-white-hued binary star [ 7] system in the southern constellation of Telescopium . It is faintly visible to the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 5.05.[ 2] The distance to this system, as determined with an annual parallax shift of 2.73 mas ,[ 1] is roughly 1,200 light-years . At that distance, the visual magnitude of the star is diminished by an extinction of 0.36 due to interstellar dust .[ 6] The pair have an orbital period of 21.7 days and an eccentricity of 0.22.[ 7] For the merged stellar classification , Houk (1978) gives B3 IV/V,[ 4] while Levato (1975) lists a more evolved class of B3 III.[ 5] It appears to be a relatively young system, barely 40 million years old.[ 8]
