HD 180134 (HR 7297; 52 G. Telescopii) is a solitary star located in the southern constellation Telescopium. It has an apparent magnitude of 6.36,[2] placing it near the limit for naked eye visibility, even under ideal conditions. The object is located relatively close at a distance of 148.4 light-years based on Gaia DR3 parallax measurements,[1] and it is drifting closer with a heliocentric radial velocity of −22.5 km/s.[5] At its current distance, HD 180134's brightness is diminished by two-tenths of a magnitude due to interstellar extinction[14] and it has an absolute magnitude of +3.09.[6]

HD 180134 has a stellar classification of F7 V,[3] indicating that it is an ordinary F-type main-sequence star that is currently generating energy via hydrogen fusion at its core. It has 1.32 times the mass of the Sun[7] and 1.9 times the radius of the Sun.[8] It radiates 4.93 times the luminosity of the Sun[1] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 6,230 K,[8] giving a whitish-yellow hue when viewed in the night sky. HD 180134 is slightly metal deficient with an iron abundance 93% that of the Sun or [Fe/H] = −0.03,[9] and it spins modestly with a projected rotational velocity of approximately 10 km/s.[10] At the age of 3.28 billion years,[11] it is 1.49 magnitudes above the zero age main sequence, meaning that it is evolved.[15]

In 2006, an infrared excess was detected around the star, which could indicate the presence of a circumstellar disk. The disk has a temperature less than 145 K, making it a cool disk; it has an angular separation greater than 0.19 arcseconds or a physical separation greater than 8.6 astronomical units.[16]
