Star in the constellation Vulpecula
HIP 100963 is a G-type star in the faint northern constellation of Vulpecula [ 4] resembling the Sun. It has an apparent visual magnitude of approximately 7.1,[ 4] making it generally too faint to be seen with the naked eye in most circumstances . The distance to this star, as determined using parallax measurements from the Gaia spacecraft , is around 92 light-years (28 parsecs ).[ 1]
This star has a stellar classification of G5,[ 4] making it a G-type star with an undetermined luminosity class . It has similar mass, temperature and chemical abundance to the Sun and was called a solar twin in a 2009 study, although its lithium abundance is three to four times that of the Sun and it is much younger. This lithium excess suggests that the star has a younger age of between 2.01 and 3.80 billion years, compared to the previous estimate of 5.13+0.00 −2.99 Gyr from a 2007 study.[ 6]
