QQ Telescopii, also known as HD 185139 or simply QQ Tel, is a solitary variable star located in the southern constellation Telescopium. It has an apparent magnitude of 6.25,[2] placing it near the limit for naked eye visibility, even under ideal conditions. Gaia DR3 parallax measurements imply a distance of 333 light years[1] and it is currently receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 7.8 km/s.[6] At its current distance, QQ Telescopii's brightness is diminished by two tenths of a magnitude due to interstellar dust[16] and it has an absolute magnitude of +1.01.[7]

HD 185139 was discovered to be a δ Scuti variable in 1982 by Debora W. Kurtz along with HR 151 (BG Ceti).[18] After a few years of subsequent observations, it was given the variable designation QQ Telescopii in 1985.[19] In 2002, C. Koen and colleagues attempted to identify the pulsation modes of the star.[13] The brightness of QQ Tel fluctuates by about 0.05 magnitudes in the blue passband within 1.56 hours.[5]

QQ Telescopii has a stellar classification of F2 IV,[3] indicating that it is a slightly evolved F-type subgiant. It was previously classified as kA6mF0 III[20] and A0pSr(CrSi),[21] indicating that it is either a chemically peculiar Ap star or Am star. However, Renson & Manfroid (2009) considers its chemical peculiarity to be doubtful.[22] Andersen & Nordstöm (1978) give it a class of F0 III:,[4] indicating that it is an evolved F-type giant star with uncertainty about the luminosity class. Evolutionary models place it very close to the end of its main sequence life.[1]

With 1.68 times the mass of the Sun[8] and an enlarged radius 3.19 times that of the Sun,[9] QQ Telescopii radiates 26.1 times the luminosity of the Sun[1] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 7,380 K,[11] giving it a yellowish-white hue. It is slightly metal enriched at [Fe/H] = +0.07[12] but the value is poorly constrained. The star is estimated to be 995 million years old[1] and it spins modestly with a projected rotational velocity of 45 km/s.[13]
