HAT-P-9 is a magnitude 12 F star approximately 1560 light years away in the constellation Auriga.[2] A search for a binary companion star using adaptive optics at the MMT Observatory was negative.[5]

Planetary system

An exoplanet orbiting the star, HAT-P-9b, was discovered by the transit method on June 26, 2008.[3]
