a complex multiple star that appears to be a single 4.2mag bright star when observed with the naked eye. Binocular will show its companion, referred to as 25 Librae. A telescope with a lens diameter over 80mm will reveal that the primary star has a faint 9mag guide at a distance of 58". A larger telescope and proper magnification should eventually prove it to be a tight binary as well. Its faint 11mag guide is at a distance of 1.9" from it.
