9 Vulpeculae is a star in the northern constellation of Vulpecula, located about 550 light years away based on parallax.[1] It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, blue-white hued star with a baseline apparent visual magnitude of 5.01.[2] The star is moving further from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +5 km/s.[4]

This a B-type star with a stellar classification of B8 IIIn,[3] where the 'n' notation indicates "nebulous" lines due to rapid rotation. It has a high rate of spin with a projected rotational velocity of 185 km/s.[8] The star is radiating 431[5] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 10,917 K.[6] This is a suspected variable star of unknown type, ranging in magnitude from 4.99 down to 5.08.[10]

9 Vulpeculae has two reported distant companions: component B, with a separation of 9.3" and magnitude 13.4, and C, with a separation of 108" and a magnitude of 12.5".[11][3] It is also a suspected variable star.[12]
