HD 131425 (HR 5547) is a solitary star in the southern circumpolar constellation Apus. It has an apparent magnitude of 5.92,[2] allowing it to be seen with the naked eye under ideal conditions. Located 923 light years away,[1] it is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 1.9 km/s.[5]

HD 131425 has a stellar classification of G8 II, indicating that it is an ageing G-type bright giant.[3] At present it has 3.13 times the mass of the Sun[7] and an enlarged diameter of 22.69 R.[8] It shines at 295 times the luminosity of the Sun[6] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,750 K,[7] giving it an orange yellow glow. HD 131425 has an iron abundance only half of the Sun[9] and spins with a projected rotational velocity of 9.1 km/s,[10] unusually high for giants.
