Zeta1 Antliae is the Bayer designation for a binary star [3] system in the southern constellation of Antlia. Based upon parallax measurements, the pair are located at a distance of roughly 350 light-years (110 parsecs ) from Earth. [1] They have apparent magnitudes of +6.20 and +7.01 and are separated by 8.042 arcseconds. [3] The apparent magnitude of the combined system is +5.76, [2] which is bright enough to be seen with the naked eye in suitably dark skies.

The two system components A and B are both A-type main sequence stars, [3] hotter, larger, and more luminous than the Sun. The primary is spinning rapidly and the secondary relatively slowly. [7] The primary has a mass of 2.46  M, an effective temperature of 9,641  K , a radius of 2.26  R, and a bolometric luminosity of 39.8  L. The secondary has a mass of 2.23 M, an effective temperature of 8,872 K, a radius of 1.74 R, and a bolometric luminosity of 16.9 L. [6]

Lambda1 Tucanae is the Bayer designation for one member of a pair of stars sharing a common proper motion through space, which lie within the southern constellation of Tucana. As of 2013, the pair had an angular separation of 20.0 arc seconds along a position angle of 82°. Together, they are barely visible to the naked eye with a combined apparent visual magnitude of 6.21. Based upon an annual parallax shift for both stars of approximately 16.5 mas as seen from Earth, this system is located roughly 198 light years from the Sun.

41 Aquarii is a double star in the equatorial constellation of Aquarius. 41 Aquarii is its Flamsteed designation. It is visible to the naked eye as a dim, orange-hued point of light with a combined apparent visual magnitude of 5.354. The pair are located at a distance of around 239 light-years from the Sun based on parallax, but are drifting closer with a radial velocity of –25 km/s.

9 Aurigae is a star system in Auriga (constellation). It has an apparent magnitude of about 5, making it visible to the naked eye in many suburban skies. Parallax estimates made by the Hipparcos spacecraft put it at about 86 light-years from the solar system, although individual Gaia Data Release 3 parallaxes place all three components at 88 light years.

HD 221776 is a double star in the northern constellation of Andromeda. With an apparent visual magnitude of 6.18, it is viewable by the naked eye user very favourable conditions. The most luminous component has a spectral classification K5III, meaning that it is an orange giant star that has evolved off the main sequence. An infrared excess has been detected around this star, indicating the star is associated with a cloud of dust particles.

HD 33463 is a suspected variable star in the northern constellation of Auriga, about 1,050 light years away. It is a red giant star with a stellar classification of M2III, and has expanded away from the main sequence after exhausting its core hydrogen. It has reached 133 times the size of the Sun and, at an effective temperature of 3,753 K it shines at a bolometric luminosity of 2,114 L.
