HD 123 is a hierarchical triple star system in the deep northern constellation of Cassiopeia. It consists of a visual binary between HD 123A and B, of which component B is itself a spectroscopic binary (Ba & Bb). Through the use of a telescope, the visual pair can be resolved, with a separation that varies between 0.5 and 1.6 arcseconds. With a combined apparent magnitude of 5.98, it is faintly visible to the naked eye under dark skies as a yellow-hued star.[4] The system is located approximately 70 light-years (21 pc) distant according to Hipparcos parallax measurements,[11] while the Gaia EDR3 parallaxes for the individual stars point towards slightly closer distances of 67.8 ly (20.8 pc) and 69.4 ly (21.3 pc), respectively. It is trending closer towards the Solar System at a heliocentric radial velocity of −13.79 km/s.[12]
