HD 222109 is a binary star system located in the northern constellation of Andromeda. It has a combined apparent visual magnitude of 5.80,[2] which allows it to be visible to the naked eye as a single star. The system has a combined spectral classification of B8V.[4] It is situated at a distance of approximately 800 light years from the Solar System,[1] and the two stars orbit each other with a period of 351.22 years. They are separated by a distance of 0.41″ and have an orbital eccentricity of 0.39.[3] Individually, the stars have apparent magnitudes of 6.08 and 7.38, respectively.[3]
