HD 73267 is a star in the southern constellation Pyxis, near the western constellation border with Puppis. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 8.889 and can be viewed with a small telescope. The distance to HD 73267 is 164 light years based on parallax, and it is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +51.8 km/s. It has an absolute magnitude of 5.24.

This object is a G-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of G5V. It is roughly eight billion years old with a near-solar metallicity and is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 1.65 km/s, giving it a rotation period of around 33 days. The star has 90% of the mass and size of the Sun. It is radiating 78% of the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5387 K.
