the only star in the constellation to be assigned a Greek letter. This tight binary, which looks like a bright 4.2mag point when viewed with the naked eye, will only show its 6.1mag companion in a large telescope and during good viewing conditions. It is located at an angular distance of only a few tenths of a second. The components have an orbital period of 37 years and a distance of 145 light years.
