The system is faintly visible to the naked eye as a point of light with a combined apparent magnitude of +5.31; the two components are of magnitude 5.78 and 6.98, respectively. It is located at a distance of approximately 610 light years from the Sun based on parallax, and is drifting further away with a radial velocity of ~10 km/s.

HD 173936 is a star in the northern constellation of Lyra. It has a blue-white hue and is just barely visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 6.06. Based upon parallax measurements, the star is located at a distance of approximately 900 light years from the Sun, and has an absolute magnitude of −1.14. It is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −19 km/s.

49 Cassiopeiae is a binary star system in the northern circumpolar constellation of Cassiopeia. It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, yellow-hued point of light with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.22. The system is located about 412 light years away from the Sun, based on parallax. The pair had an angular separation of 5.40″ along a position angle of 244°, as of 2008, with the brighter component being of magnitude 5.32 and its faint companion having magnitude 12.30.

HD 224635 and HD 224636 is a pair of stars comprising a binary star system in the constellation Andromeda. They are located approximately 94 light years away and they orbit each other every 717 years.

HD 223311 is a star in the equatorial constellation of Aquarius. It has an orange hue and is visible to the naked eye as a dim star with an apparent visual magnitude of 6.08. Based on parallax measurements, the star is located at a distance of approximately 910 light years from the Sun. It is a radial velocity standard star that is drifting closer to the Sun at the rate of −20 km/s. The star is situated near the ecliptic and thus is subject to lunar occultations.

HD 204521 Star in the constellation Cepheus

HD 204521 is a star in the northern constellation of Cepheus. In the sky it positioned just to the west of the magnitude 3.2 star Beta Cephei. This object has a yellow hue similar to the Sun but is too faint to be visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 7.26. It is located at a distance of 86 light years from the Sun based on parallax, and has an absolute magnitude of 5.15. The star is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −77 km/s, and is predicted to come to within 7.96 light-years in 334,000 years. At that distance the star can have a relatively small perturbing effect on comets in the Oort cloud.
