Its story

23 Aquilae shines 371 light-years away, along the flank of the Eagle that soars across the summer Milky Way. It is an orange K-type star, cooler than the Sun, with the unhurried light typical of mature giants. It shares the sky with Altair, anchor of the Summer Triangle, though its fainter glow reserves it for those who hunt detail between the great guide stars.
