HD 173047 is a solitary, bluish-white hued star located in the southern constellation Telescopium. It has an apparent magnitude of 6.24,[2] placing it near the limit for naked eye visibility, even under ideal conditions. The object is located relatively far at a distance of 1,050 light-years based on Gaia DR3 parallax measurements, but it is drifting closer with a heliocentric radial velocity of −10.7 km/s.[1] At its current distance, HHD 173047's brightness is heavily diminished by 0.44 magnitudes due to interstellar extinction[8] and it has an absolute magnitude of −1.52[4]

HD 173047 has a stellar classification of B8/9 II,[3] indicating that it is an evolved B-type star with the characteristics of a B8 and B9 bright giant. It has 4 times the mass of the Sun[5] and a slightly enlarged radius 5.54 times that of the Sun's.[1] It radiates a bolometric luminosity 692 times that of the Sun's[5] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 11,843 K[7] HD 173047 is metal enriched with an iron abundance 126% that of the Sun's ([Fe/H] = +0.10)[6] and it is estimated to be 194 million years old.[8]
