HD 50235 is a class K5III [3] (orange giant) star located approximately 811 light years away, [1] in the constellation Puppis. Its apparent magnitude is 4.99. [2] 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. [9] [ citation needed ]
Epsilon Sculptoris is a binary star in the constellation Sculptor. It is approximately 91.7 light years from Earth.
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.
ε Monocerotis, Latinised as Epsilon Monocerotis, is the Bayer designation of a binary star system in the equatorial constellation Monoceros. Its location is a guide for sky navigation toward the Rosette Nebula.
24 Scorpii is a star that was originally placed by John Flamsteed within the constellation of Scorpius but in now placed within the southeastern constellation of Ophiuchus. It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, yellow-hued point of light with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.91. Based on the trigonometric parallax published in Gaia Data Release 2, the star lies approximately 121 parsecs or 390 light years away. It is positioned near the ecliptic and thus is subject to lunar occultations.
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.
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.
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.
Gamma Pictoris, Latinised from γ Pictoris, is a single, orange-hued star in the southern constellation of Pictor. It is a faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.50. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 18.45 mas as seen from Earth, this star is located about 177 light-years from the Sun. It is moving away from the Sun with a radial velocity of +15.7 km/s.
HD 65810 is a class A2V star in the constellation Puppis. Its apparent magnitude is 4.61 and it is approximately 241 light years away based on parallax.
HD 63744 is a class K0III star in the constellation Puppis. Its apparent magnitude is 4.71 and it is approximately 232 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 61772 is a bright giant star in the constellation Puppis. Its apparent magnitude is 4.98 and it is approximately 660 light years away based on parallax.
HD 167818 is a class K3II star in the constellation Sagittarius. Its apparent magnitude is 4.66 and it is approximately 760 light years away based on parallax.
HD 190056 is a class K1III star in the constellation Sagittarius. Its apparent magnitude is 4.99 and it is approximately 291 light years away based on parallax.
Theta2 Microscopii is a class A0III star in the constellation Microscopium. Its apparent magnitude is 5.76 and it is approximately 390 light years away based on parallax. It is an Ap star, a chemically peculiar star with unusually strong metallic spectral lines.
HD 42540, also known as HR 2196, is a suspected variable star in the constellation Pictor. A class K2-3III orange giant, its apparent magnitude is 5.04 and it is approximately 362 light years away based on parallax.
41 Leonis Minoris is a single star in the northern constellation Leo Minor, located near the southern border with the neighboring constellation of Leo. It is visible to the naked eye as a dim, white-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.08. This object is located approximately 229 light years away from the Sun, based on parallax, and is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +18.5 km/s.
Epsilon Octantis, Latinized from ε Octantis, is a star in the southern circumpolar constellation of Octans. It is a faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of about 5. The annual parallax shift of 11.22 mas yields a distance estimate of around 291 light years. It is moving further from the Sun with a radial velocity of +11.7 km/s.
