Upsilon1 Eridani (υ1 Eri) is a single star in the constellation Eridanus. It has an apparent visual magnitude is 4.51,[2] which is bright enough to be faintly visible to the naked eye on a clear, dark night. The distance to this star, as determined using the parallax method,[1] is around 127 light years.

This is an evolved red clump[8] giant star with a stellar classification of K0III-IV.[3] The measured angular diameter, after correction for limb darkening, is 1.74±0.02 mas.[9] At an estimated distance of this star, this yields a physical size of about 7.3 times the radius of the Sun.[5] It has 154%[4] of the Sun's mass and radiates 24 times the solar luminosity from its outer atmosphere at an effective temperature of 4,941 K.[4]
