Photographic photometry and a rough spectral classification were carried out for many stars in the angular vicinity of the planetary nebula NGC 7139. The extinction-distance method was applied and led to a distance of 2.4 kpc for the planetary. Several highly reddened early-type stars appear to be located beyond the Perseus arm. In the [O III] 5007 Å line, observations of NGC 7139 with a Fabry-Pérot interferometer led to an expansion velocity of 20 km s-1 and a heliocentric radial velocity of -73.3±3 km s-1.
