χ Carinae is a variable sub-giant star of spectral class B3 in the constellation of Carina.
χ Carinae visual magnitude is 3.47. Because of its moderate brightness, χ Carinae is easily visible to the naked eye from locations with dark skies, while it might be barely visible, or not visible at all, from light-polluted skies.
