V0391 Peg is a star 3900 light-years away with a spectral type of sdBV. It has an age reported as a lower limit of 10 billion years, a mass of 0.5 solar masses, a radius of 0.23 solar radii, and a temperature of 29300 K. Its reported mass and radius estimates are smaller than the Sun's, while its reported temperature is hotter than the Sun's. One planet is known to orbit this host.
That planet, V0391 Peg b, was discovered in 2007 using Pulsation Timing Variations. Its minimum mass is 1020 Earth masses, larger than Earth's and roughly 3.2 times Jupiter's mass. It completes an orbit every 1170 days.
