58Pi Dra is an uncommon star. It lies about 228.9 light-years from Earth, sits in the constellation Dra, shines at apparent magnitude 4.6 and has spectral type A2IIIs.
Its spectrum reads A2IIIs — an A-type star: white-hot, typically about twice the Sun's mass, and the class most of the sky's famous bright stars belong to.
Look for 58Pi Dra in the constellation Dra. At apparent magnitude 4.6, it can be glimpsed with the unaided eye under dark skies.
Like any astronomical target, 58Pi Dra 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.
58Pi Dra scores 26 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the uncommon tier. Another 8 points would lift it into a rarer tier.
That score comes from 5 science badges — Star, Naked-eye visible, Never sets (northern circumpolar), White A-type star and Giant 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.
