NO Apodis is a solitary,[15] red hued variable star located in the southern circumpolar constellation Apus. It has an average apparent magnitude of 5.86,[16] allowing it to be faintly seen with the naked eye. The object is relatively far at a distance of 790 light years[1] but is drifting closer with a heliocentric radial velocity −18.3 km/s.[7]
NO Apodis has a stellar classification of M3 III,[4] indicating that it is a red giant. It is currently on the asymptotic giant branch,[3] fusing hydrogen and helium shells around an inert carbon core. At present it has 1.63 times the mass of the Sun[9] and an enlarged radius of 107 R☉.[10] It shines with a bolometric luminosity 1,408 times that of the Sun[11] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 3,521 K.[10]
NO Apodis is classified as a semiregular variable of unknown subtype. Observations from Tabur et. al. (2009) reveal it to have two periods, both lasting 26-7 days.[17] During this timeframe, the star flucates between 5.71 and 5.95 in the visual band.[2]
