Rho Pegasi (ρ Peg) is a class A1V[3] (white main-sequence) star in the constellation Pegasus. Its apparent magnitude is 4.90[2] and it is approximately 312 light years away based on parallax.[1] This is a probable astrometric binary system, as determined by changes to the proper motion of the visible component.[9]
