HD 31134, also designated as HR 1561, is a solitary star[14] located in the northern circumpolar constellation Camelopardalis, the giraffe. It is faintly visible to the naked eye as a white-hued star with an apparent magnitude of 5.74.[2] Gaia DR3 parallax measurements place it 473 light years away.[1] It appears to be approaching the Solar System with a heliocentric radial velocity of −15.1 km/s.[6] At its current distance, HD 31134's brightness is diminished by 0.35 magnitudes due to interstellar dust.[15] It has an absolute magnitude of +0.19.[7]

The object has a stellar classification of A2 Vs,[4] indicating that it is an A-type main-sequence star with sharp or narrow absorption lines due to slow rotation. Two sources remove the s prefix and instead list it as an ordinary dwarf star[16][17] while one lists it as a more evolved giant star.[18] Abt and Morell (1995) list it as a slightly hotter peculiar Ap star,[5] but it is now considered unlikely to be chemically peculiar.[19] It has 2.74 times the mass of the Sun and an enlarged radius of 4.38 R☉.[8] It radiates 103 times the luminosity of the Sun[3] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 8,690 K.[9] HD 31134 is a rather evolved star, having completed 97.6% of its main sequence lifetime[3] at the age of 432 million years.[12] Consistent with its spectrum, it spins modestly with a projected rotational velocity of 60 km/s.[11]
