At its current distance 1 Trianguli's brightness is diminished by a quarter of a magnitudes due to interstellar dust and it has an absolute magnitude of +0.78. Even though it has a Flamsteed designation, 1 Trianguli is one of the 220 Flamsteed stars that are not in the Yale Bright Star Catalogue.

1 Trianguli has a stellar classification of A2 V, indicating that it is an ordinary A-type main-sequence star. It has 2.36 times the mass of the Sun and 2.69 times the Sun's radius. It radiates 52 times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 9,305 K, giving it a white hue. It has a near solar metallicity at [Fe/H] = −0.02 and 1 Trianguli is estimated to be 371 million years old.

Editorial summary

Begin with the source’s own compact description: “1 Trianguli” is star in the constellation Triangulum. The dossier treats that line as a proposition to test through Trianguli, star and constellation, not as a finished interpretation.

Editorial reviewA practical starting point whose main value is the path it opens into stronger specialist and primary sources. The current 189-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. For this dossier, Trianguli, star and constellation is the immediate research focus.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The phrase “star in the constellation Triangulum” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.

Evidence profile

Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 12, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q97325000. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
