HD 190422, also known as HR 7674 or rarely 77 G. Telescopii, is a solitary star located in the southern constellation Telescopium. It has an apparent magnitude of +6.25,[2] placing it near the limit for naked eye, even under ideal conditions. At its current distance, HD 190422's brightness is diminished by 0.11 magnitudes due to extinction from interstellar dust[16] and it has an absolute magnitude of +4.41.[6]

The star is located relatively close at a distance of 79 light years based on Gaia DR3 parallax measurements[1] but it is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 12.7 km/s.[5] Approximately 1.6 million years ago, HD 190422 was located 7.806 parsecs (25.46 ly) away from the Sun.[17]

HD 190422 has a stellar classification of F9 V CH−0.4,[3] indicating that it is a F-type main-sequence star with a mild underabundance of the CH radical in its spectrum. It has 125% the mass of the Sun[7] and 109% of the Sun's radius.[8] It radiates 1.534 times the luminosity of the Sun[1] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 6,235 K,[9] giving it a whitish-yellow hue. HD 190422 is slightly metal deficient with a metallicity of [Fe/H] = −0.13[10] and it spins modestly with a projected rotational velocity of 15.6 km/s.[12] The star is estimated to be 400 million years old,[13][3] less than a tenth the age of the Sun.
