HD 83058

HD 83058 is a G8V-type star located approximately 90 light-years away from Earth in the constellation Hydra. It is a main-sequence star, meaning it is currently fusing hydrogen into helium in its core. HD 83058 is slightly smaller and less massive than the Sun.

The star is of interest to astronomers due to its relatively high metallicity, meaning it contains a larger proportion of elements heavier than hydrogen and helium compared to the Sun. This characteristic has made it a target in the search for exoplanets.

As of October 26, 2023, no exoplanets have been definitively confirmed orbiting HD 83058. However, radial velocity measurements and other observational techniques have been employed to study the star and search for potential planetary companions. Continued observation and analysis may lead to the discovery of planets in the future.

The star's coordinates are approximately Right Ascension 09h 35m 42.92s and Declination -40° 34' 17.4". Its apparent magnitude is around 7.6, meaning it is not visible to the naked eye. It requires binoculars or a telescope for observation.
