7Pi 1Ori is an uncommon star. It lies about 116.3 light-years from Earth, sits in the constellation Ori, shines at apparent magnitude 4.64 and has spectral type A0V.
Its spectrum reads A0V — 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 7Pi 1Ori in the constellation Ori. At apparent magnitude 4.64, it can be glimpsed with the unaided eye under dark skies.
Like any astronomical target, 7Pi 1Ori 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.
7Pi 1Ori scores 24 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the uncommon tier. Another 10 points would lift it into a rarer tier.
That score comes from 5 science badges — Star, Naked-eye visible, In Orion's hunting ground, White A-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.
