HIP 93791 is a common star. It lies about 1,382 light-years from Earth, sits in the constellation Tel, shines at apparent magnitude 11.69 and has spectral type Gp.
Its spectrum reads Gp — a G-type star: the very same spectral class as our own Sun.
Look for HIP 93791 in the constellation Tel. At apparent magnitude 11.69, a small backyard telescope will bring it into view.
Like any astronomical target, HIP 93791 is best seen from a dark site away from city lights, and when it is above the horizon depends on your latitude and the time of year. The visibility panel above works out tonight's viewing window for your saved location.
HIP 93791 scores 17 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the common tier. Another 5 points would lift it into a rarer tier.
That score comes from 3 science badges — Star, Distant (over 1,000 light-years) and Sun-like G-type star — each earned for a real, measurable property of the object. Rarity on Spacedle is never random: the more remarkable an object's astrophysics, the more badges it collects, the higher it scores, and the rarer it ranks.
