The star is located at a distance of approximately 451 light years from the Sun based on parallax, and is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +1.6 km/s. It is positioned near the ecliptic and thus is subject to lunar occultations.
100 Aquarii is a star in the zodiac constellation of Aquarius. The designation is from the star catalogue of English astronomer John Flamsteed, first published in 1712. It is near the lower limit of visibility to the naked eye, appearing as a dim, yellow-white hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 6.24. The heliocentric radial velocity is poorly constrained, but the star appears to be moving closer to the Earth at the rate of around −8 km/s.
61 Aquarii, abbreviated 61 Aqr, is an orange-hued star in the zodiac constellation of Aquarius. 61 Aquarii is its Flamsteed designation. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 6.39, which indicates it is a dim star that requires good seeing conditions to view. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 6.53 mas as seen from Earth's orbit, the star is located around 500 light years away.

IZ Aquarii is a red giant star in the constellation Aquarius. It is a slow irregular variable that varies between magnitudes 6.23 and 6.47.
40 Aquarii is a star in the equatorial constellation of Aquarius. 40 Aquarii is its Flamsteed designation; it was too faint to be included in the Bright Star Catalogue. The brightness of this star is below the normal limit for visibility with the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 6.93. Based upon parallax measurements, it is located about 726 light-years away from the Sun. It is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of -3 km/s. 40 Aquarii is positioned near the ecliptic and thus is subject to lunar occultations.
64 Aquarii is a star located 312 light years away from the Sun in the zodiac constellation of Aquarius. 64 Aquarii is its Flamsteed designation. With an apparent visual magnitude of 6.93, it is too faint to be readily visible to the naked eye. The star is moving further from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +11 km/s.
67 Aquarii is a star located 484 light years away from the Sun in the zodiac constellation of Aquarius. 67 Aquarii is its Flamsteed designation. It is a dim, blue-white hued star near the lower limit of visibility to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 6.40. At the distance of this star, its visual magnitude is diminished by an extinction of 0.11 due to interstellar dust. The position of this star near the ecliptic means it is subject to lunar eclipses.
Epsilon Piscis Austrini is a blue-white hued star in the southern constellation of Piscis Austrinus. It is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of +4.17. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 8.0981 ± 0.3582 mas as seen from the GAIA satellite, the system is located roughly 400 light years from the Sun.
Lambda Piscis Austrini, Latinized from λ Piscis Austrini, is a solitary star in the southern constellation of Piscis Austrinus.
