37 Aquilae, abbreviated 37 Aql, is a star in the equatorial constellation of Aquila. 37 Aquilae is its Flamsteed designation. It has an apparent visual magnitude of approximately 5.12, [2] which is bright enough to be visible to the naked eye. The distance to 37 Aql can be estimated from its annual parallax shift of 7.4 mas , [1] yielding a range of 444 light years. The star is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −30 km/s, [1] and is predicted to come to within 72 light-years in around 4.4 million years. [2]
This is an aging giant star with a stellar classification of G8 IIIa. [3] It is uncertain whether this star is on the red giant branch or the horizontal branch; Reffert et al. (2015) give 57% odd that it is the latter. In that case, their model shows an estimated age of 1.2 billion years with 2.3 times the mass of the Sun and 23 times the Sun's radius. It is radiating 219 times the Sun's luminosity from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,594 K. [5] These coordinates are a source of X-ray emission, which is most likely coming from the star. [7]
Chi Scorpii, Latinized from χ Scorpii, is a single star in the zodiac constellation of Scorpius. It has an orange hue and can be faintly seen with the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.22. Based upon parallax measurements, this star is around 409 light years from the Sun. The star is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −23.6 km/s.
Eta Scuti, Latinized from η Scuti, is a single star in the southern constellation of Scutum, near the constellation border with Aquila. Eta Scuti was a latter designation of 9 Aquilae before the official constellation borders were set in 1922. It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, orange-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of +4.83. This object is located approximately 213 light years from the Sun based on parallax, and is drifting further away with a radial velocity of -92.
64 Andromedae, abbreviated 64 And, is a single star in the northern constellation of Andromeda. With a spectral type G8III, it is a deep-yellow coloured G-type giant approximately 419 light years from Earth with an apparent magnitude of 5.19.

It is a faint star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.76 that is barely visible to the naked eye under good seeing conditions. The star is located near the ecliptic and thus is subject to lunar occultations. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 12.2 mas as seen from Earth orbit, it is located 266 light years away. It is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −21 km/s.
16 Aquarii, abbreviated 16 Aqr, is a star in the constellation of Aquarius. 16 Aquarii is the Flamsteed designation. It is a faint star, just visible to the naked eye, with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.869. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 9.5 mas, it is located about 342 light years away. It is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −6 km/s, and is predicted to come within 220 light-years in 6.8 million years.
70 Aquilae, abbreviated 70 Aql, is a single orange-hued star in the equatorial constellation of Aquila. 70 Aquilae is its Flamsteed designation. It is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.90. The distance to 70 Aquilae, as determined from its annual parallax shift of 3.5 mas, is around 940 light years. The star is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −9 km/s.
21 Aquilae is a solitary variable star in the equatorial constellation of Aquila. It has the variable star designation V1288 Aql; 21 Aquilae is its Flamsteed designation.
