HD 61330 (f Puppis) is a class B8IV [3] (blue subgiant) star in the constellation Puppis. Its apparent magnitude is 4.53 [2] and it is approximately 360 light years away based on parallax. [1]
It is a multiple star, with a secondary component C, with magnitude 6.07 in an 81-year orbit with eccentricity 0.64. [7] Another closer component, B, has been reported at 6.1 magnitude and 0.1" separation, but subsequent observers have repeatedly failed to confirm it. [8]
HD 20468 is a class K2II star in the constellation Perseus. Its apparent magnitude is 4.82 and it is approximately 1180 light years away based on parallax.
HD 63922 is a class B0III star in the constellation Puppis. Its apparent magnitude is 4.11 and it is approximately 1600 light years away based on parallax.
HD 64760 is a class B0.5 supergiant star in the constellation Puppis. Its apparent magnitude is 4.24 and it is approximately 1,660 light years away based on parallax.
16 Puppis is a suspected astrometric binary star system in the southern constellation of Puppis, and is located in the northernmost part of its constellation, almost due north of the bright star Rho Puppis, and east of Canis Major. It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, blue-white hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.40. The star is located is approximately 465 light years away from the Sun based on parallax. It was the brightest star in Officina Typographica, an obsolete constellation.
HD 69142 is a class K1II-III star in the constellation Puppis. Its apparent magnitude is 4.44 and it is approximately 298 light years away based on parallax.
HD 70060 is a class A8V star in the constellation Puppis. Its apparent magnitude is 4.45 and it is approximately 93.4 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.
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.
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.
HD 59890 is a class G3Ib yellow supergiant star in the constellation Puppis. Its apparent magnitude is 4.65 and it is approximately 1,360 light years away based on parallax.
HD 60863 is a class B8V star in the constellation Puppis. Its apparent magnitude is 4.65 and it is approximately 222 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.
19 Puppis is a binary star system in the southern constellation of Puppis, near the northern border with Hydra and Monoceros. It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, yellow-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.72. The system is located approximately 177 light years away from the system based on parallax. It is receding from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +36 km/s, having come to within 31 light-years some 1.4 million years ago.
HD 68601 is a class A7Ib star in the constellation Puppis. Its apparent magnitude is 4.75 and it is approximately 4,200 light years away based on parallax.
HD 70555 is a class K2.5II-III star in the constellation Puppis. Its apparent magnitude is 4.83 and it is approximately 1,010 light years away based on parallax.
HD 61831 is a class B2.5V star in the constellation Puppis. Its apparent magnitude is 4.84 and it is approximately 556 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.
42 Persei is a binary star system in the northern constellation of Perseus. It has the Bayer designation n Persei, while 42 Persei is the Flamsteed designation. The system is visible to the naked eye as a dim, white-hued point of light with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.11. It is located around 93 parsecs (302 ly) distant from the Sun, but is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −12.4 km/s.
