28 Aquarii is a single[9] star located about 560 light years away from the Sun in the zodiac constellation of Aquarius. 28 Aquarii is the Flamsteed designation.[8] It is visible to the naked eye as a dim, orange-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.6.[2] This object is moving further from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +8.1 km/s.[5]

This 2.9[7] billion year old object is an aging giant star with a stellar classification of K2 III.[3] After exhausting the hydrogen at its core, this star evolved off the main sequence and has now expanded to 28[1] times the Sun's radius. It has 1.47 times the mass of the Sun and is radiating 258[1] times the Sun's luminosity from its swollen photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,361 K.[7]
