HIP 113007 is an uncommon star. It lies about 572.2 light-years from Earth, sits in the constellation Peg, shines at apparent magnitude 10.46 and has spectral type S....
Its spectrum reads S... — an S-type giant, its atmosphere laced with zirconium dredged up from the fusion going on below.
Look for HIP 113007 in the constellation Peg. At apparent magnitude 10.46, a small backyard telescope will bring it into view.
Like any astronomical target, HIP 113007 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 113007 scores 23 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the uncommon tier. Another 11 points would lift it into a rarer tier.
That score comes from 2 science badges — Star and S-type star (zirconium giant) — 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.
