Its distance is not well known; it may be anywhere between {{val|23000|fmt=commas}} and {{val|42000|fmt=commas}} light years (7,000 to 13,000 parsecs) away from the Earth.[3] Despite being extremely luminous, it is extremely reddened by interstellar extinction, so its apparent magnitude is brighter for longer-wavelength passbands; in fact, in visual wavelengths it is completely undetectable.[6]

AFGL 2298 has an absolute bolometric magnitude of −11.25,[5] making it one of the most luminous stars known. Indeed, many of the hottest and most luminous stars known are luminous blue variables and other early-type stars. However, like all LBVs, AFGL 2298 is highly variable and the bolometric magnitude refers to its peak luminosity.[5] Its status as an LBV was confirmed in 2003.[3]

Like most extremely massive stars, AFGL 2298 is undergoing mass loss.[4] For example, in 2005 it was estimated to be losing {{val|3.7e-5}} solar masses each year,[4] although the rate of mass loss itself varies frequently and dramatically.[5] The stellar mass is currently being ejected as a nebula around the star (similar to AG Carinae), which was imaged by the Very Large Telescope in 2010.[7] The nebula was found to be fairly circular, and the properties of the dust appeared to be constant throughout the entire nebula.[7]
