HD 173417

HD 173417 is a 6th magnitude star in the constellation Lyra, approximately 169 light years away from Earth. It is a yellowish white giant or subgiant star of the spectral type F1III-IV. It therefore has a surface temperature of 6,000 to 7,500 kelvins and is hotter, larger, and several times brighter than our Sun.[1]
