45 Ophiuchi is a single[10] star in the equatorial constellation of Ophiuchus, along the southern border with Scorpius. It has the Bayer designation d Ophiuchi, while 45 Ophiuchi is the Flamsteed designation. In the past it had the designation Theta Telescopii.[11] This object is visible to the naked eye as a faint, yellow-white hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.28.[2] It is located approximately 111.6 light years away from the Sun based on parallax.[1] The star is drifting further from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +38 km/s.[5]

This object has a stellar classification of F5III-IV,[3] matching an F-type star with a luminosity class displaying mixed traits of a subgiant and a giant star. It is 1.2[7] billion years old with 1.7[6] times the mass of the Sun and 3.2[6] times the Sun's radius. The star is radiating 19[2] times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 6,750 K.[7] It is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 65 km/s.[8]
