Delta2 Telescopii is a blue-white-hued binary star[6] system in the southern constellation of Telescopium. It is faintly visible to the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 5.05.[2] The distance to this system, as determined with an annual parallax shift of 2.73 mas,[1] is roughly 1,200 light-years. At that distance, the visual magnitude of the star is diminished by an extinction of 0.36 due to interstellar dust.[5] The pair have an orbital period of 21.7 days and an eccentricity of 0.22.[6] For the merged stellar classification, Houk (1978) gives B3 IV/V,[3] while Levato (1975) lists a more evolved class of B3 III.[4] It appears to be a relatively young system, barely 40 million years old.[7]
