12 Hydrae is a probable astrometric binary[10] star system located 205 light years away from the Sun in the equatorial constellation of Hydra. It has the Bayer designation D Hydrae;[9] 12 Hydrae is the Flamsteed designation. This system is visible to the naked eye as a faint, yellow-hued star with a combined apparent visual magnitude of 4.32.[1] It is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −8.5 km/s.[1]

This was found to be a double star by R. A. Rossiter in 1953,[11] with the magnitude 13.7 companion having an angular separation of 26.8″ along a position angle of 266°, as of 2016. The brighter, magnitude 4.32 component A is a spectroscopic binary. As of 2009, the orbital solution for this pair is of low quality, giving a period of roughly 4 years and an eccentricity of around 0.4.[5]

The primary component is an aging giant star with a stellar classification of G8 IIIb CN-1,[3] where the suffix notation indicates an underabundance of the cyanogen molecule. It is 410 million years old[2] with 1.8 times the mass of the Sun.[6] After exhausting the hydrogen at its core and evolving off the main sequence, the star has swollen to 11 times the Sun's radius.[7] It is radiating 71 times the luminosity of the Sun[8] from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,105 K.[7]
