HD 165185 is the Henry Draper Catalogue designation for a star in the southern zodiac constellation of Sagittarius. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 5.94,[2] which indicates it is a sixth magnitude star that is faintly visible to the naked eye. (According to the Bortle scale, it can be viewed from dark suburban skies.) Parallax measurements by the Hipparcos spacecraft give an estimated distance of 57.3 light years away.[1]

This star is a pre-main-sequence[10] solar analog[11] with a stellar classification of G1 V.[2] It is spinning rapidly with a projected rotational velocity of 7.53 km/s[7] and a rotation period of 5.9 days.[5] Measurements of magnetic activity in the chromosphere show variations over time, much like the sunspot cycle. This activity showed a distinct peak in 2009.[12] Stellar models give an estimated mass equal to 1.13[4] times the mass of the Sun, but only 94%[5] of the Sun's radius. The total, or bolometric luminosity of the star is 15% higher than the Sun,[6] while the abundance of elements other than hydrogen and helium—what astronomer's term the metallicity—is nearly the same as in the Sun.[7] The stellar atmosphere has an effective temperature of 5,940[7] K, giving it the yellow-hued glow of a G-type star.[13]

HD 165185 completed its perihelion passage some 851,000 years ago when it came within 29 ly (8.9 pc) of the Sun,[14] and it is now moving away with a radial velocity component of 15.4 km/s.[2] Based upon the motion of this star through space, its age, and properties, this star is a probable member of the Ursa Major Moving Group; a stellar kinematic group that formed in the same region of space.[10] It has a suspected common proper motion companion at an angular separation of 12, corresponding to a projected separation of 220 AU. This is a red dwarf star with a stellar classification of M0 and an infrared K band magnitude of 8.11.[15]
