AE Pictoris is an eclipsing binary[6] star system in the southern constellation of Pictor. This dim, blue-white hued point of light is just barely visible to the naked eye; it has an apparent visual magnitude of 6.09, which drops to magnitude 6.14 during an eclipse.[13] The system is located around 1,430 light years away from the Sun based on parallax,[2] and it is receding with a radial velocity of 34 km/s.[14]

This is a spectroscopic binary system with an orbital period of 2.97 days and an eccentricity of 0.10. The minimum value of the semimajor axis for the pair is 4.8 Gm (6.9 R).[7] The secondary star was only recently (in 2023) detected, making it a double-lined spectroscopic binary.[10] It is classed as a probable eclipsing binary variable (EB:), but with some uncertainty regarding the specific type.[6] This is a candidate runaway star system, having a peculiar velocity of 24.9+4.9
−5.1
 km/s
relative to its neighbors.[8] The visible component is a B-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of B3V.[4] it is 28 million years old with seven[8] times the mass of the Sun. The star is radiating 2,569 times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 18,700 K.[9]
