HIP 10267 is an uncommon star. It lies about 281.9 light-years from Earth, sits in the constellation Cas, shines at apparent magnitude 9.94 and has spectral type DF.
Its spectrum reads DF — a white dwarf — the exposed, Earth-sized cinder of a dead star, with nothing left to burn.
Look for HIP 10267 in the constellation Cas. At apparent magnitude 9.94, a small backyard telescope will bring it into view.
Like any astronomical target, HIP 10267 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 10267 scores 29 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the uncommon tier. Another 5 points would lift it into a rarer tier.
That score comes from 3 science badges — Star, Never sets (northern circumpolar) and White dwarf (a burnt-out core) — 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.
