The brightest star of the constellation, although it only reaches a magnitude of 4.52. In reality, it is a binary star, with a companion of magnitude 12.4 located at a separation of 6.6". However, we would need a larger telescope to verify this. The system is located at a distance of 66 light-years from us.
