30 Ophiuchi is a single[10] star in the equatorial constellation of Ophiuchus, and figures 0.99° east (specifically E½S) of the heart of cluster Messier 10.[11] It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, orange-hued point of light with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.82.[2] The distance to this star is approximately 350 light years based on parallax.[6] Its present motion is, net, one of approaching rather than parting, at −6.7 km/s, its "radial velocity".[5]

This is an aging giant star with a stellar classification of K4III,[3] having exhausted the supply of hydrogen at its core and expanded to 36[1] times the Sun's radius. It is a suspected variable star.[12] The star is radiating 300[1] times the luminosity of the Sun from its swollen photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,009 K.[1] It is emitting a far infrared excess due to circumstellar dust,[13] which extends out to a diameter of 240 AU and has a mass of 62×1025 g.[14]

The primary presents with two visual companions: B, at magnitude 9.71 and separation 99.8″, and C, at magnitude 8.75 and separation 220.9″ (3′ 40.9″).[15]
