2 Ceti is a single[12] star in the equatorial constellation of Cetus, near the border with Aquarius. It is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.483.[2] The distance to 2 Ceti can be estimated from its annual parallax shift of 12.0 mas,[1] which yields a value of around 272 light years. It appears to be moving further from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of about +8 km/s.[6]

The stellar classification for this star is B9 IVn,[3] matching a B-type subgiant star with "nebulous" absorption lines due to rapid rotation.[13] Estimates of the rotation rate range from 116[8] to 237[10] km/s, and this high rate of spin is giving the star an equatorial bulge that is 12% larger than the polar radius.[13] 2 Ceti is about 217[9] million years old with 2.7[7] times the mass of the Sun and 2.75[7] times the Sun's radius. It is radiating 119[8] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 11,419 K.[9] An infrared excess has been detected around this star by the Akari satellite at a wavelength of 18μm, suggesting there is an orbiting debris disk.[14]
