HD 86264 is a star 221 light-years away with a spectral type of F8, placing it among the hotter stars rather than the Sun's G-type class. It is 2.24 billion years old, holds 1.42 solar masses, spans 1.88 solar radii, and has a temperature of 6210 K. Its mass, radius, and temperature are larger or hotter than the Sun's.
One planet is known around this star. HD 86264 b was found in 2009 using the radial velocity method, which measures the wobble a planet's gravity induces in its star's motion; repeated wobbles reveal the planet and its orbital period. That period is 1490 days, and the planet's mass is 3120 Earth masses, larger than Earth's and roughly 9.81 times Jupiter's mass.
