The data for Kappa1 Cet (= HD 20630) are wrong.
Apparently, the star has been cross-identified with
another star in a totally different sky region (southern
hemisphere) or, better, it has been identified with two
stars (HD 20630 and HD 89465) the first of which is really
Kappa1 Cet.
The same double cross-identification is apparent from the
HIP and HIC names.
Anyway, the stellar data listed in the main page are not
those of Kappa1 Cet which has a spectral type G5V a
magnitude V=4.8 and coordinates RA=03 19 20.7
DEC= +03 22 08 at J2000.
Some time ago I searched for data of this star with
Simbad and they were OK, thus the error should
be occurred not from the beginning.
