HD 191220, also known as HR 7698, is a solitary white hued star located in the southern circumpolar constellation Octans. It has an apparent magnitude of 6.14,[2] placing it near the limit for naked eye visibility. The object is located relatively close at a distance of 245 light years based on Gaia DR3 parallax measurements[1] but is slowly receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 0.1 km/s.[5] At its current distance, HD 191220's brightness is diminished by 0.22 magnitudes due to interstellar dust.[15]

This is a chemically peculiar Am star[16] with a stellar classification of A2/3mA8-F0,[3] an A-type star with the metallic lines of a star with a class of A8-F0. It has double the mass of the Sun and 2.2 times its girth.[7] It radiates 15.57 times the luminosity of the Sun[9] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 7,706 K.[11] HD 191220 is estimated to be nearly a billion years old[12] and has a near solar metallicity — what astronomers dub a star's abundance of chemical elements heavier than helium.[12]
