HD 30080, also known as HR 1509, is a solitary, orange hued star located in the southern constellationCaelum, the chisel. It has an apparent magnitude of 5.66, allowing it to be faintly visible to the naked eye. Parallax measurements from Gaia DR3 place the object at a distance of 612 light years. It appears to be approaching the Solar System with a heliocentric radial velocity of −3.8km/s. Eggen (1989) lists it as a member of the thick disk population.
