HIP 64766 is a trash star. It lies about 125.6 light-years from Earth, sits in the constellation Com, shines at apparent magnitude 12.73 and has spectral type A.
Its spectrum reads A — 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 HIP 64766 in the constellation Com. At apparent magnitude 12.73, it takes a larger telescope or a long-exposure image to capture.
Like any astronomical target, HIP 64766 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 64766 scores 13 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the trash tier. Another 2 points would lift it into a rarer tier.
That score comes from 3 science badges — Star, White A-type star and Blue-white 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.
