19 Aquarii is a star in the zodiac constellation of Aquarius. With an apparent magnitude of about 5.7,[2] the star is barely visible to the naked eye as a white-hued star (see Bortle scale). Parallax estimates put it at a distance of about 260 light years away from the Sun.[1] The star is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −21 km/s.[5]

This object is an A-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of A8V.[3] It is around 788[7] million years old with a fairly fast rotation rate, as its projected rotational velocity is about 155 km/s,[8] so it must be rotating at least that fast. It has 1.86[7] times the mass of the Sun and 2.76[1] times the Sun's radius. 19 Aquarii is radiating 26[1] times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 8,078 K.[7] Eggen has this star flagged as a blue straggler and a member of the HR1614 supercluster.[10]
