Pi Draconis, Latinized from π Draconis, is a solitary[7][4] star in the northern circumpolar constellation of Draco. It is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.59.[2] Based upon an annual parallax shift of 14.25 mas as measured from Earth,[1] it is located around 229 light years from the Sun. At that distance, the visual magnitude is diminished by an extinction factor of 0.063±0.10 due to interstellar dust.[12]

With an age of 350 million years, this is an A-type star of stellar classification A2 IIIs,[3][4] where the luminosity class of III typically indicates an evolved giant star and the 's' means the spectrum displays sharp absorption lines. It is a candidate Am star,[10] meaning there are some chemical peculiarities. The measured angular size is 0.427±0.062 arc seconds.[12] At the estimated distance of Pi Draconis, this yields a physical size of about 3.2 times the radius of the Sun.[8] It has about 2.70[7] times the mass of the Sun and is radiating 60[9] times the solar luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 9,125 K.[10]
