20 Puppis is a solitary[10] star in the southern constellation of Puppis. It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, yellow-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.99.[2] The star lies approximately 990 light years away from the Sun based on parallax. It is receding from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +16.8 km/s.[4]
This object has a stellar classification of G4 Ib-II,[3] matching a G-type star with a luminosity class part way between a bright giant and a supergiant star. It is just 90[6] million years old with around five[6] times the mass of the Sun. The star has expanded to 48[1] times the Sun's radius and is radiating 1,087[1] times as much luminosity as the Sun from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,804 K.[1]
