HAT-P-7 is a F-type main sequence star located about 1044 light-years away in the constellation Cygnus. The apparent magnitude of this star is 10.5, which means it is not visible to the naked eye but can be seen with a small telescope on a clear dark night.[2]
Planetary system
This star has one planet. This star system is within the field of view of the now-operational Kepler Mission planet-hunter spacecraft.[4]
