HD 45350 is an 8th magnitude star located approximately 160 light-years away in the constellation of Auriga. It is a yellow subgiant (spectral type G5 IV) a Sun-like star that is finishing hydrogen fusion in its core. Although slightly cooler it is brighter although not much considering its subgiant status. However the star is very old and will soon start to expand becoming finally a red giant.
