HAT-P-8 is a magnitude 10 star located 700 light-years away in Pegasus. It is a F-type star about 28% more massive than the Sun. Two red dwarf companions have been detected around HAT-P-8. The first has a spectral type of M5V and has a mass of 0.22 M. The second is even less massive, at 0.18 M, and its spectral type is M6V.

Planetary system

In 2008 the HATNet Project announced the discovery of extrasolar planet HAT-P-8b around this star. This planet is a hot Jupiter gas giant planet.
