HIP 19276 is a common star. It lies about 888.7 light-years from Earth, sits in the constellation Cam, shines at apparent magnitude 10.75 and has spectral type B3V.
Its spectrum reads B3V — a blue-white B-type star, with a surface tens of thousands of degrees hot and a life measured in tens of millions of years.
Look for HIP 19276 in the constellation Cam. At apparent magnitude 10.75, a small backyard telescope will bring it into view.
Like any astronomical target, HIP 19276 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 19276 scores 15 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the common tier. Another 7 points would lift it into a rarer tier.
That score comes from 4 science badges — Star, Never sets (northern circumpolar), Hot blue B-type star and Main-sequence 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.
