HD 92209 (HR 4170) is a probable spectroscopic binary[11] in the southern circumpolar constellation Chamaeleon. It has an apparent magnitude of 6.29,[3] placing it near the max naked eye visibility. Parallax measurements place the system at a distance of 600 light years[2] and is currently receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of almost 18 km/s.[6]

The visible component has a stellar classification of K2 III,[4] indicating that it is a red giant. As a consequence, it has expanded to 14.39 times the radius of the Sun.[8] Nevertheless, it has 122% the mass of the Sun[7] and shines with a luminosity of 81.3 L☉,[9] yielding an effective temperature of 4,460 K[9] from its enlarged photosphere, which in turn gives an orange hue. HD 92209 has a metallicity 115% that of the Sun[10] and spins leisurely with a projected rotational velocity lower than 1 km/s.[11]
