A complex multiple star, which appears as a single star with a brightness of 4.2 mag when observed with the naked eye. The finder will show its companion labeled as 25 Librae. A telescope with an objective diameter over 80 mm will reveal that the primary star has a faint companion of 9 mag at a separation of 58". With a larger telescope and appropriate magnification, it should eventually be proven that it itself is a close binary star. Its faint companion of 11 mag is located at a separation of 1.9" from it. |
