Nu² Columbae is a solitary star^[11] in the southern constellation of Columba. It can be seen with the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 5.31.^[2] With an annual parallax shift of 24.51 mas,^[1] it is estimated to lie about 133 light years from the Sun.

This star has a stellar classification of F5 V,^[3] indicating that it is an F-type main sequence star that is generating energy through the thermonuclear fusion of hydrogen into helium in its core region. It has about 1.65 times the mass of the Sun^[4] and 1.6 times the Sun's radius.^[6] X-ray emission has been detected from this star, with an estimated luminosity of 1.6×10²⁹ erg/s.^[5] It is about 1.8 billion years old^[4] and is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 27.2 km/s.^[8] The star is radiating about 10 times the solar luminosity from its outer atmosphere^[7] at an effective temperature of 6,473 K.^[4]
