Tau Pegasi, formally named Salm, is a magnitude 4.6 star 162 light years away in the constellation of Pegasus. With about twice the mass of the Sun and thirty times as luminous, tt is a δ Scuti variable star with its brightness changing by a few hundredths of a magnitude over about an hour.
28 Monocerotis is a single star in the equatorial constellation of Monoceros. It has an orange-hue and is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.69. The distance to this star is approximately 450 light years based on parallax, and it has an absolute magnitude of −1.00. The star is drifting further away from the Sun with a radial velocity of +26.7 km/s.
19 Monocerotis is a single, variable star in the equatorial constellation of Monoceros, located approximately 1,220 light years away from the Sun based on parallax. It has the variable star designation V637 Monocerotis, while 19 Monocerotis is the Flamsteed designation. This object is visible to the naked eye as a faint, blue-white hued star with a baseline apparent visual magnitude of 5.00. It is receding from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +25 km/s.
11 Orionis is a solitary Ap star in the equatorial constellation of Orion, near the border with Taurus. It is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.65, and it is located approximately 365 light years away from the Sun based on parallax. The star is moving further from the Sun with a heliocentric radial velocity of +16.8 km/s.
31 Orionis is a binary star system in the equatorial constellation of Orion, located near the bright star Mintaka. It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, orange-hued point of light with a baseline apparent visual magnitude of 4.71. The distance to this system is approximately 490 light years away based on parallax, and it is drifting further away with a mean radial velocity of +6 km/s.
31 Pegasi is a single star in the northern constellation of Pegasus. It is visible to the naked eye as a dim, blue-white hued point of light with a baseline apparent visual magnitude of 4.99. It is located approximately 1,600 light years away from the Sun based on parallax, but is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −5.3 km/s.
72 Pegasi is a binary star system in the northern constellation of Pegasus. It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, orange-hued point of light with a combined apparent visual magnitude of 4.97. The system is located approximately 550 light years away from the Sun, based on parallax, but is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −25 km/s.
17 Persei is a single star in the northern constellation of Perseus, located about 390 light years away from the Sun. It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, orange-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.53. This object is moving further from the Earth at a heliocentric radial velocity of +13 km/s.
HD 18970 is a class G9.5III star in the constellation Perseus. Its apparent magnitude is 4.77 and it is approximately 211 light years away based on parallax.
V Puppis is a star system in the constellation Puppis. Its apparent magnitude is 4.41. There is a binary star system at the center with a B1 dwarf orbiting a B3 subgiant star. They have an orbital period of 1.45 days and a distance of only 15 solar radii apart. However, the system moves back and forth, indicating that there is a massive object orbiting them with a period around 5.47 years. Based on the mass of the object, its lack of a visible spectrum, and circumstellar matter in the system with many heavy elements, it is probably a black hole. However, a follow-up study could not confirm this object, but found signs that there may be a third object which is fainter than the other components.
QZ Puppis is a class B2.5V star in the constellation Puppis. Its apparent magnitude is 4.5 and it is approximately 650 light years away based on parallax.
NV Puppis, also known as υ1 Puppis, is a class B2V star in the constellation Puppis. Its apparent magnitude is 4.67 and it is approximately 800 light years away based on parallax.
OU Puppis is a chemically peculiar class A0 star in the constellation Puppis. Its apparent magnitude is about 4.9 and it is approximately 188 light-years away based on parallax.
HD 53811 is a class A4IV star in the constellation Puppis. Its apparent magnitude is 4.92 and it is approximately 198 light years away based on parallax.
HD 51799 is a class M1III star in the constellation Puppis. Its apparent magnitude is 4.95 and it is approximately 860 light years away based on parallax.
HD 50235 is a class K5III star located approximately 811 light years away, in the constellation Puppis. Its apparent magnitude is 4.99. HD 50235 made its closest approach to the Sun 7.8 million years ago, at the distance of 137 light years, during which it had an apparent magnitude of 1.13.
