HD 138573 is a G-type main-sequence star in the constellation Serpens, class G5IV-V, roughly 98.4 light-years (30.2 parsecs) from Earth.[7] This is a solar twin, with nearly the same characteristics of the Sun.[4] It is more active than the Sun.[8]

Mahdi et al. (2016) named the star the best solar twin candidate out of their dataset of around 2,800 candidates.[4]
