HD 125072 is a star in the southern constellation of Centaurus. It is a challenge to view with the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 6.637.[2] The star is located at a distance of 38.6 light years from the Sun based on parallax.[1] It is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −14.9 km/s.[5] The components of the space velocity for this star are U=−18.5, V=−6.9 and W=−26.9 km/s.[7]
The stellar classification of this star is K3 IV,[3] matching a K-type subgiant that is evolving into a giant. It has 81%[6] of the Sun's mass and 83%[1] of the radius of the Sun. The star is radiating 34.7% of the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,858 K.[1] Based on the composition and kinematics of this star, it has an estimated age of about 10 billion years.[7] It is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 4 km/s.[8]
