HD 177365 is a visual binary[12] located in the southern constellation Telescopium. It has an apparent magnitude of 6.27,[2] placing it near the limit for naked eye visibility, even under ideal conditions. Gaia DR3 parallax measurements imply a distance of 373 light-years and it is currently receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 15.5 km/s.[1] At its current distance, HD 177365's brightness is diminished by two-tenths of a magnitude due to interstellar extinction[13] and it has an absolute magnitude of +0.16.[5]

The binarity of the system was first noticed in a 1996 United States Naval Observatory survey.[14] A Hipparcos proper motion survey published in 2006 catalogued the primary as a probable astrometric binary with an 89.6% chance.[15] HD 177365 B, the companion, is a 16th magnitude star located 101.3" away along a position angle of 218° as of 2015.[14]

The visible component has a stellar classification of B9 V,[3] indicating that it is an ordinary B-type main-sequence star that is generating energy via hydrogen fusion. It has 3.05 times the mass of the Sun[6] and 3.33 times the radius of the Sun.[6] It radiates 119 times the luminosity of the Sun[7] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 11,557 K.[6] HD 177365 A is slightly metal deficient with an iron abundance 78% that of the Sun's ([Fe/H] = −0.11)[8] and it is estimated to be 226 million years old.[9]
