51 Hydrae is a single[7] star in the equatorial constellation of Hydra,[6] located 170 light years away from the Sun.[1] It has the Bayer designation k Hydrae; 51 Hydrae is the Flamsteed designation.[6] This object is visible to the naked eye as a faint, orange-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.78. It is moving further from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +20 km/s.[2] Eggen (1971) listed it as a member of the η Cephei group of old-disk stars.[8]

This is an evolved giant star with a stellar classification of K4 III,[3] which indicates it has exhausted the supply of hydrogen at its core and expanded off the main sequence. It has 1.31[4] times the mass of the Sun but has swollen to 13.5[1] times the Sun's radius. The star is radiating 55[1] times the luminosity of the Sun from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,255 K.[4]
