Star in the constellation Aquarius
35 Aquarii , also known by its Flamsteed designation , is a single[ 9] star located approximately 2,200 light years away from the Sun in the zodiac constellation of Aquarius . It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, blue-white star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.80.[ 2] This object is moving closer to Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −7 km/s,[ 2] and is suspected to be a runaway star , potentially ejected from an open cluster due to a binary –binary interaction.[ 10]
This star is a blue giant with a stellar classification of B2 III,[ 3] indicating that it is a massive star that has evolved off the main sequence . With an age of around 22.5[ 4] million years, it has a relatively low projected rotational velocity of 10 km/s.[ 7] The star has a mass of 10[ 4] times the mass of the Sun and is radiating 1,622[ 5] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 17,400 K.[ 6]
