HD 23277 (HR 1138) is a spectroscopic binary[11] located in the northern circumpolar constellation Camelopardalis. With a combined apparent magnitude of 5.39,[2] it is faintly visible to the naked eye under ideal conditions. This star is located at a distance of 372 light years,[1] but is drifting away at a rate of 17 km/s.[5]

The primary has a classification of kA2hA6VmA7,[3] which indicates that it has the calcium K-line of an A2 star, but its hydrogen lines suggest a class of A6 V and metallic lines of an A7 star. At present it has 2.38 times the Sun's mass, and 3.55 times its radius.[7] It radiates at 59.7 times the luminosity of the Sun[8] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 8,317 K,[7] which gives it a white hue. The companion has 2.11 times the Sun's mass,[6] which suggests it is an A-type main-sequence star like the primary. Both stars spin at a projected rotational velocity of 25 km/s, common for an Am star.[9]
