Eta Volantis, Latinized from η Volantis, is a single star[12] in the southern constellation of Volans. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 5.28,[13] which is bright enough to be seen with the naked eye as a dim, white-hued star. Based upon parallax measurements, it is approximately 387 light years from the Sun. The star is moving further away from the Sun with a radial velocity of Script error: No such module "val"..[4]
This is an A-type star with a stellar classification of A0/1 IV/V,[2] displaying blended spectrum that shows aspects of a main sequence star and a subgiant. Stellar evolution models from Zorec and Royer (2012) place it near the main sequence turnoff, having completed 90.7% of its time on the main sequence. The star is estimated to be 347 million years old[6] and is spinning rapidly with a projected rotational velocity of 214 km/s.[10] It has 2.73 times the mass of the Sun[6] and 3.43 times the Sun's radius.[7] Eta Volantis is radiating 84[8] times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of Script error: No such module "val"..[9]
Eta Volantis has two 12th magnitude optical companions at angular separations of 26.8 and 48.1 arcseconds.[14]
