94 Aquarii (abbreviated 94 Aqr) is a triple star[12] system in the equatorial constellation of Aquarius. 94 Aquarii is the Flamsteed designation. The brightest member has an apparent visual magnitude of 5.19,[2] making it visible to the naked eye. The parallax measured by the Gaia spacecraft yields a distance estimate of around 73 light-years (22 parsecs) from Earth.[1]
The inner pair of this triple star system form a spectroscopic binary with an orbital period of 6.321 years, a moderate orbital eccentricity of 0.173,[7] and a combined visual magnitude of 5.19.[13] The primary component of this pair has a stellar classification of G8.5 IV,[9] with the luminosity class of IV indicating this is a subgiant star. At an angular separation of 13.0 arcseconds from this pair is a magnitude 7.52[13] K-type main sequence star with a classification of K2 V.[4]
