Short description: Star in the constellation Perseus

55 Persei is a single,^[9] blue-white hued star in the northern constellation Perseus. It is faintly visible to the naked eye under good seeing conditions, having an apparent visual magnitude of 5.73.^[2] Based upon an annual parallax shift of 8.50±0.38 mas^[4] as seen from Earth's orbit, the star is located about 380 light years from the Sun. At that distance, the visual magnitude is diminished by an extinction of 0.39^[5] due to interstellar dust.

This is a B-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of B8 V;^[2] a massive star that is generating energy through hydrogen fusion at its core. It has 3.44^[6] times the mass of the Sun and about 3^[7] times the Sun's radius. The star is about 197^[5] million years old and is spinning rapidly with a projected rotational velocity of 288 km/s.^[6] It is radiating roughly 193^[6] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 12,246 K.^[6]
