HD 49947 (HR 2531) is a solitary star in the southern circumpolar constellation Volans. It has an apparent magnitude of 6.36, placing it near the max naked eye visibility. Parallax measurements place the object at a distance of 459 light years but is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 15.88 km/s

HD 49947 has a stellar classification of G8 III[4] and is a red clump giant, meaning that it is located on the warm end of the horizontal branch.[3] At present it has double the mass of the Sun[7] and at an age of 1.27 billion years,[9] has expanded to an enlarged radius of 10.33 solar radii.[7] It radiates at 61 times the luminosity of the Sun from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,964 K,[7] giving a yellow hue. HD 49947 is metal deficient with an iron abundance 68% that of Sun[7] and spins very slowly.[8]
