HD 156411 is a star 185 light-years away with a spectral type of F8 IV/V. It has an age of 4.28 billion years, a mass of 1.24 solar masses, a radius of 2.15 solar radii, and a temperature of 5910 K. Its reported mass and radius estimates are larger than the Sun's, and its reported temperature is hotter than the Sun's. One planet orbits this host.
That planet is HD 156411 b, discovered in 2009 by the radial velocity method, which measures the wobble a planet's gravity induces in its star's motion. Its minimum mass is 235 Earth masses, larger than Earth's, and its orbital period is 842 days.
