HD 176425, also known as HR 7177 or rarely 38 G. Coronae Australis, is a solitary, bluish-white hued star located in the southern constellation Corona Australis. It has an apparent magnitude of 6.21,[2] placing it near the limit for naked eye visibility, even under ideal conditions. Gaia DR3 parallax measurements imply a distance of 358 light-years,[1] and it is currently drifting closer with a heliocentric radial velocity of −12.8 km/s.[5] At its current distance, HD 176425's brightness is diminished by an interstellar extinction factor of 0.27 magnitudes[14] and it has an absolute magnitude of +0.75.[6]

HD 176425 is an ordinary A-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of A0 V.[3] It has been used as an unpolarized standard in the southern sky.[15] It has 2.63 times the mass of the Sun[7] and 2.19 times the radius of the Sun.[8] The object radiates 50.8 times the luminosity of the Sun[1] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 10,163 K.[9] HD 176425 is metal deficient with an iron abundance 79% that of the Sun ([Fe/H] = −0.10)[10] and it is estimated to be 286 million years old.[11][12]
