HD 24479, also designated as HR 1204, is a solitary,[15] bluish-white hued star located in the northern circumpolar constellation Camelopardalis. The star is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.04.[2] Based on Gaia DR3 parallax measurements,[1] it is located 385 light years from the Sun. However, it is receding with a somewhat constrained heliocentric radial velocity of 4.6 km/s.[6] At its current distance, HD 24479's brightness is diminished by 0.29 magnitudes due to interstellar dust.[16]

In 1932, HD 24479 was identified as a Be star by Olin C. Wilson at the Mount Wilson Observatory.[17] In 1969, astronomer Anne Cowley and her colleauges listed a stellar classification of B9.5 V,[5] matching a B-type main-sequence star. Slettebak (1982) gave it a class of B9 IV,[4] suggesting this instead an evolving subgiant star. Zorec and Royer (2012) model it to be an evolved dwarf star that has completed 85.9% of its main sequence lifetime.[3]

It has an estimated 3.14 times the mass of the Sun[3] and 4.1 times the Sun's radius,[8] which is large for its class. The star is radiating 156 times the Sun's luminosity[8] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 10,250 K.[3] HD 24479 is estimated to be 256 million years old[12] and is spinning quickly with a projected rotational velocity of 85 km/s.[11]
