Delta Antliae is the Bayer designation for a binary star system in the southern constellation of Antlia. The combined apparent visual magnitude of the system is +5.57, allowing it to be viewed from the suburbs with the naked eye. Judging by the parallax shift of this system, it is located at a distance of 450 ± 10 light-years from Earth. The system is reduced in magnitude by 0.03 due to extinction caused by intervening gas and dust.
41 Aurigae is a binary star system located around 310–316 light years away from the Sun in the northern constellation of Auriga. It is visible to the naked eye as a dim, white-hued star with a combined apparent visual magnitude of 5.83. This system is moving further from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of 31 km/s. It is a probable member of the Hyades Supercluster.
Mu Boötis, Latinized from μ Boötis, consists of a pair of double stars in the northern constellation of Boötes, 120 light-years from the Sun.

It has the traditional name Merga and the Bayer designation h Boötis; 38 Boötis is the star's Flamsteed designation. This object is visible to the naked eye as a dim, yellow-white hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.76. It is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −4.5 km/s.
1 Boötis is a binary star system in the northern constellation of Boötes, located 318 light years away from the Sun. It is visible to the naked eye as a dim, white-hued star with a combined apparent visual magnitude of 5.71. The pair had an angular separation of 4.660″ as of 2008. It is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −26 km/s.
Lambda Cancri is a blue-white-hued spectroscopic binary star in the zodiac constellation of Cancer. With a combined apparent visual magnitude of +5.93, it is faintly visible to the naked eye. Based upon parallax measurements obtained during the Gaia mission, it is about 550 light-years distant from the Sun.
Nu Capricorni or ν Capricorni is a binary star system in the southern constellation of Capricornus. It is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of +4.76.
λ Ophiuchi, Latinized as Lambda Ophiuchi, is a triple star system in the equatorial constellation of Ophiuchus. It has the traditional name Marfik, which now applies exclusively to the primary component. The system is visible to the naked eye as a faint point of light with an apparent visual magnitude of 3.82. It is located approximately 173 light-years from the Sun, based on its parallax, but is drifting closer with a radial velocity of –16 km/s.
Alpha2 Capricorni, or Algedi, is a triple star system in the southern constellation of Capricornus. It is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of +3.57. It is separated from the fainter α¹ Capricorni by 0.11° of the sky, a gap just resolvable with the naked eye, similar to Mizar and Alcor. Based on parallax shift as refined from orbits around the sun of the Gaia spacecraft at earth's Lagrange point 2, the star is 101 to 103 light years from the solar system.
HD 85951, formally named Felis, is a solitary orange hued star in the constellation Hydra. It has an apparent magnitude of 4.94, making it faintly visible to the naked eye under ideal conditions. Based on parallax measurements, the object is about 570 light-years away from the Sun and is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 50 km/s.
Upsilon Pegasi, Latinised from υ Pegasi, is a star within the great square in the northern constellation of Pegasus. It has the proper name Alkarab. This object has a yellow-white hue and is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent magnitude of 4.40. It is located at a distance of approximately 170 light-years from the Sun based on parallax, but is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −8.6 km/s. The star is moving through the galaxy at a speed of 50.6 km/s relative to the Sun. Its projected galactic orbit carries it between 18,600 and 26,300 light-years from the center of the galaxy.
