Omega2 Cygni, Latinized from ω2 Cygni, is the Bayer designation for a solitary[8] star in the northern constellation of Cygnus. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 5.5,[3] which is faintly visible to the naked eye on a dark night. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 7.18 mas,[2] it is located roughly 454 light years from the Sun. At that distance, the visual magnitude is diminished by an extinction factor of 0.08 due to interstellar dust.[3]
This is a red giant star on the asymptotic giant branch, with a stellar classification of M2 III.[4] It is a suspected variable star, although the evidence is considered "doubtful or erroneous". If it does exist, the variability is small with an amplitude of 0.05 magnitude and a timescale of around 30 days.[9] There is a 58.3% chance that this star is a member of the Hercules stream.[3]
