HD 171819, also known as HR 6986 or rarely 22 G. Telescopii, is a solitary star[14] located in the southern constellation Telescopium. It is faintly visible to the naked eye as a white-hued object with an apparent magnitude of 5.84.[2] The object is located relatively close at a distance of 313 light years based on Gaia DR3 parallax measurements, but it is approaching the Solar System with a heliocentric radial velocity of −9 km/s.[6] At its current distance, HD 171819's brightness is diminished by one-quarter of a magnitude due to interstellar dust[15] and it has an absolute magnitude of +0.65.[7]

HD 171819 has a stellar classification of A7 IV/V, indicating that the object is a late A-type star with the blended luminosity class of a main sequence star and subgiant.[3] However, astronomer William Buscombe gave it a class of A3 V,[4] instead making it an ordinary A-type main-sequence star. Evolutionary models give it an age of 855 million years and place it towards the end of its main-sequence life.[1] At present it has 1.73 times the mass of the Sun[8] and a slightly enlarged radius 3.37 times that of the Sun.[9] It radiates 33.3 times the luminosity of the Sun[1] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 7,512 K.[10] HD 171819 has a near solar metallicity at [Fe/H] = −0.02.[11]
