HD 171028 is a star with an exoplanet companion in the equatorial constellation of Ophiuchus. With an apparent visual magnitude of 8.3,[2] it is too faint to be readily visible with the naked eye. Unlike most planet-harboring stars, it does not have a Hipparcos number. The star is located at a distance of approximately 365 light years from the Sun based on parallax, and is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +13.5 km/s.[1]

This is a yellow-hued G-type star of unknown luminosity class with a stellar classification of G0.[3] It is a metal-poor star belonging to the thin disk population.[6] HD 171028 is estimated to be nearly five billion years old and is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 2.3 km/s.[3] It has the same mass as the Sun, but the radius is 2.4 times larger. The star is radiating 5.4[1] times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,671 K.[2]

In the summer of 2007, a Jovian planetary companion was discovered by the HARPS planet search program using the radial velocity method.[3] This object is orbiting at a distance of Script error: No such module "val". from the host star with a period of Script error: No such module "convert". and an eccentricity (ovalness) of 0.59. Since the inclination of the orbit is unknown, only a minimum mass can be determined. This planet has at least double the mass of Jupiter.[7]
