HD 194012 (HR 7793; Gliese 789) is a star in the equatorial constellation Delphinus. It has an apparent magnitude of 6.15, making it visible to the naked eye under ideal conditions. The star is relatively close at a distance of only 85 light years but is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 4.5 km/s.

HD 194012 has a stellar classification of F7 V, indicating that it is an ordinary F-type main-sequence star. It has 121% the mass of the Sun and is estimated to be a billion years old, spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 5 km/s. The star's diameter is 118% that of the Sun and shines with a luminosity of 1.9 L from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 6,301 K, giving a yellow white hue. HD 194012's metallicity is calculated to be 87% that of the Sun.

A 2010 paper has identified a candidate substellar companion 12.78 away along a position angle of 67.9°. HD 194012 has been examined for infrared excess suggesting a debris disk but none was found.
