Upsilon Geminorum, Latinized from υ Geminorum, is a star in the constellation Gemini. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 4.04,[2] which is bright enough to be seen with the naked eye. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 12.88 mas,[1] it is around 253 light years from the Sun. There is a visual companion: a magnitude 13.20 star located at an angular separation of 55.20 along a position angle of 40°, as of 2008.[10]

This is an evolved red giant star with a stellar classification of M0 III.[4] It is estimated to have 1.52[7] times the mass of the Sun, but has expanded to 40[8] times the Sun's radius. The star is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 5.9 km/s[5] and is about 3.53[7] billion years old. Upsilon Geminorum is radiating 370 times the solar luminosity from its outer atmosphere at an effective temperature of 4,019 K.[8]

Based upon the motion of this star through space, Upsilon Geminorum is a member of the Wolf 630 moving group. This is a set of stars centered on Wolf 630 that are moving nearly in parallel and have an age of around 2.7±0.5 billion years. They may be former members of a dissolved open cluster.[11]
