HD 96819 is a single [9] star in the equatorial constellation of Hydra. It was formerly known by its designation 10 Crateris, but that name fell into disuse after constellations were redrawn and the star was no longer in Crater. It is visible to the naked eye as a dim, white-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.43. [3] Parallax measurements put it at a distance of 182  light years away from the Sun. [1] This is most likely (98.7% chance) a member of the TW Hydrae association. [7]

This is a rapidly rotating A-type main-sequence star that is about double the mass of the Sun. It emits 20.66 times as much energy as the Sun, at an effective temperature of 8,954 K. HD 96819 is currently 31.5% through its life as a main-sequence star: after that it will swell up as a red giant. [4] It is a young star of around nine million years age, [7] and is a suspected variable star. [10]

HD 5789 and HD 5788 is a pair of stars comprising a binary star system in the northern constellation of Andromeda. Located approximately 151 parsecs (490 ly) away, the primary is a hot, massive blue star with an apparent magnitude of 6.06 while the secondary is slightly smaller and cooler, with an apparent magnitude of 6.76. Both stars are main-sequence stars, meaning that they are currently fusing hydrogen into helium in their cores. As of 2016, the pair had an angular separation of 7.90″ along a position angle of 195°. While both have a similar proper motion and parallax, there's still no proof that the pair is gravitationally bound.

HD 3 is a single, white-hued star in the northern constellation Andromeda. With an apparent visual magnitude of 6.71, it is below the nominal brightness limit for visibility with the typical naked eye but may still be visible by some observers under ideal viewing conditions. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 5.89±0.35 mas, it is located roughly 550 light years away.

It is an A-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of A3/5V. However, Levato (1973) classed the star as A3IV, which would suggest it is already evolving off the main sequence. The star has a high rotation rate, showing a projected rotational velocity of 160 km/s.

57 Persei, or m Persei, is a suspected triple star system in the northern constellation of Perseus. It is at the lower limit of visibility to the naked eye, having a combined apparent visual magnitude of 6.08.

19 Lyncis is a triple star system in the northern constellation of Lynx. A telescope reveals it consists of two blue-white hued stars of magnitudes 5.80 and 6.86 that are 14.750 arcseconds apart, with a visual companion of magnitude 7.6 that is 3.5 arcminutes distant. The first two are located around 680–690 light years away from the Sun, based on parallax measurements. Their radial velocity measurements are poorly constrained, but suggest the system is trending away from the Earth.

Alruba, a name derived from Arabic for "the foal", is a suspected astrometric binary star system in the northern circumpolar constellation of Draco. It is just barely visible to the naked eye as a dim point of light with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.76.

HD 182681 is a single, blue-hued star in the zodiac constellation of Sagittarius.
