HR 4458 (HD 100623) is a binary star system 31.18 light-years away in the equatorial constellation of Hydra. It has the Flamsteed designation 20 Crateris[19] and the Gould designation 289 G. Hydrae;[20] the former refers to the constellation Crater, but when the IAU formally defined constellation boundaries, it was placed in Hydra. This object is visible to the naked eye as a dim, orange-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.97.[3] It is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −22 km/s.[21]

The primary component is a K-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of K0 V.[6] It is around five billion years old[14] with 84% of the Sun's radius.[10] The star is radiating 37% of the Sun's luminosity[11] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,241 K.[12] It has been examined for the presence of an infrared excess, but none was detected.[11]

There is a 15th-magnitude common proper motion companion called VB4 at an angular separation of 16.2,[7] corresponding to a projected separation of 162.5 astronomical unit|AU.[22] This is a white dwarf star with a classification of DC8.[7] The orbital period of the pair is estimated as 1,110 years.[22]
