Eltanin, also known as Gamma Draconis, is classified as a giant star with a spectral type of M3 III. It is considered a low to intermediate mass star, having evolved off the main sequence after exhausting the hydrogen in its core. Its mass is estimated to be around 2-3 times that of the Sun, placing it in the low to intermediate mass range for stars.
The three major stars in the constellation Draco are Thuban, Eltanin, and Etamin. Thuban was once considered the North Star due to its proximity to the celestial pole.
It's a giant red star.
