μみゅー Tauri, Latinized as Mu Tauri, is a single[11] star in the equatorial constellation of Taurus. It has a blue-white hue and is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.27.[2] The star is located approximately 490 light years distant from the Sun based on parallax,[1] and is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +16 km/s.[5]

This object has a stellar classification of B3IV,[3] matching a B-type subgiant star. In the past this star was thought to have a variable radial velocity, but is now considered constant.[12] It is 252[9] million years old and is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 89 km/s.[8] The star has 6.7[6] times the mass of the Sun and is radiating 462[2] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 16,980 K.[7] It is emitting an infrared excess at a wavelength of 18 μみゅーm, making it a candidate host of a faint warm debris disk.[13]
