HD 154972, also known as HR 6373 or rarely 56 G. Apodis, is a solitary, bluish-white-hued star located in the southern circumpolar constellation Apus. It has an apparent magnitude of 6.23,[2] placing it near the limit for naked eye visibility. Gaia DR3 parallax measurements place the object 336 light years away,[1] and it is currently drifting closer with a heliocentric radial velocity of −3.1 km/s.[5] At its current distance, HD 154972's brightness is diminished by 0.23 magnitudes due to extinction from interstellar dust.[13] It has an absolute magnitude of +1.11.[6]

This is an ordinary A-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of A0 V.[3] Paunzen et al. (2001) lists it as a potential λ Boötis star.[14] It has 2.56 times the mass of the Sun[7] and 2.08 times its solar radius.[8] It radiates 42 times the luminosity of the Sun[1] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 9,772 K.[9] It is estimated to be 330 million years old[11] and is slightly metal deficient[10] (78% solar abundance).
