64 Draconis is a single[10] star in the northern circumpolar constellation of Draco, located 452 light years away.[1] It has the Bayer designation of e Draconis; 64 Draconis is the Flamsteed designation. The object is visible to the naked eye as a dim, red-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.27.[2] It is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −36 km/s, and it is predicted to come as close as 204 ly in around 4.3 million years.[5]
This is an evolved red giant star with a stellar classification of M1 III,[4] currently on the asymptotic giant branch.[3] It has expanded to about 68 times the Sun's radius and is radiating 967 times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,134 K. 64 Draconis forms a faint naked-eye pair with 65 Draconis 12′ away. The latter is a suspected variable with a brightness range in the Hipparcos photometric filter of 5.29 to 5.33.[11]
In Chinese astronomy, it belongs to the 天廚 (Tiān Chú) (Celestial Kitchen) asterism.[12]
