47 Andromedae is a binary star system in the northern constellation of Andromeda. The designation is from the star catalogue of John Flamsteed, first published in 1712. The system has a combined apparent visual magnitude of 5.60, which is just bright enough to be faintly visible to the naked eye under good seeing conditions. The distance to this system, as determined from an annual parallax shift of 15.9805 mas, is about 204 light years. It is moving away from the Sun with a heliocentric radial velocity of +13.3 km/s.
6 Andromedae is an astrometric binary star system in the northern constellation of Andromeda. The designation comes from the star catalogue of John Flamsteed, first published in 1712. Its apparent visual magnitude is 5.91, which is just bright enough to be visible to the naked eye under good seeing conditions. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 34.1 mas as seen from Earth, it is around 96 light years from the Sun. It is moving closer to the Sun with a radial velocity of −32.4 km/s. The system has a relatively high proper motion, advancing across the celestial sphere at the rate of 0.272 arc seconds per annum.
32 Aquarii is a binary star system in the zodiac constellation of Aquarius. 32 Aquarii is its Flamsteed designation. It is visible to the naked eye as a dim, white-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.29. This system is moving away from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +19 km/s, and is a possible member of the corona of the Ursa Major flow.
58 Aquarii, abbreviated 58 Aqr, is a star in the constellation of Aquarius. 58 Aquarii is its Flamsteed designation. It is a sixth magnitude star with an apparent visual magnitude of 6.39, which means it is a challenge to view with the naked eye. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 13.4 mas, it is located 243 light years from the Sun. This has been identified as a visual binary system with an orbital period of 829.976 days in a circular orbit.
22 Camelopardalis is a binary star system in the northern circumpolar constellation of Camelopardalis, located 212 light years away from the Sun.

It is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −32.5 km/s, and is predicted to come as near as 77.3 light-years to the Sun some 4.5 million years from now.
ET Andromedae is a binary star system star in the northern constellation of Andromeda. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 6.48, placing it at the nominal limit for visibility with the naked eye. The distance to this system can be estimated from its annual parallax shift of 5.42 mas, which yields a value of 602 light years.
DV Aquarii is a binary star system in the zodiac constellation of Aquarius. It has a peak apparent visual magnitude of 5.89, which is bright enough to be visible to the naked eye. The distance can be estimated from its annual parallax shift of 11.2 mas, yielding a separation of 291 light years.

HR 4072 is a binary star system in the northern circumpolar constellation of Ursa Major. It has the variable star designation ET Ursae Majoris, abbreviated ET Uma, while HR 4072 is the system's designation from the Bright Star Catalogue. It has a white hue and is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude that fluctuates around 4.94. The system is located at a distance of approximately 339 light years from the Sun based on parallax measurements. The radial velocity measurement is poorly constrained, but it appears to be drifting closer to the Sun at the rate of around −3 km/s.
