HD 155448 is a quintuple star system consisting of 5 young B-type stars . With an apparent magnitude of 8.72,[2] it is too dim to be visible with the naked eye. Measurements from the Hipparcos spacecraft in 1997 give the system a distance of 1,976 light years with a high margin of error.[1] The New Hipparcos Reduction states a distance of 6,272 light years, giving a higher margin of error,[4] making both distances unreliable. Analysis in 2011 states that the stars aren't gravitationally bound to each other.[3]

Before 2011, this star was mistaken as either a Herbig Ae/Be star[5] or a post-AGB object.[6] When the system was studied in 2011, it was originally believed to contain only 4 stars (at least more than 2 stars) HD 155448 A, B, C, and D. However, a study conducted at the European Southern Observatory in Chile concluded that the "B" star is actually a binary star, thus reclassifying it as a quintuple star system.

All of the stars are currently on the ZAMS, which suggests a low luminosity and radius. At present HD 155448's components have masses ranging from 3-6 times the mass of the Sun, and temperatures ranging from 10,000-16,000 K. However, the A component has a mass greater than 7 solar masses and an effective temperature of 25,000 K.
