HD 85725 has a stellar classification of G1 V,[3] which indicates that it is an ordinary G-type main-sequence star that is fusing hydrogen at its core. However, a low surface gravity[6] suggests that the object is a subgiant. At present it has 143%[7] the Sun’s mass but is twice as large,[8] which is not characteristic of a yellow dwarf. It shines at over 7[8] times the luminosity of the Sun and has a surface temperature of 5,986 K,[6] which gives it a yellow glow. At an age of 2.69 billion years[6] HD 85725 is spinning leisurely with a projected rotational velocity of 6.02 km/s. [6]
