HIP 93591 is a common star. It lies about 2,470.9 light-years from Earth, sits in the constellation Aql, shines at apparent magnitude 10.67 and has spectral type B1.
Its spectrum reads B1 — a blue-white B-type star, with a surface tens of thousands of degrees hot and a life measured in tens of millions of years.
Look for HIP 93591 in the constellation Aql. At apparent magnitude 10.67, a small backyard telescope will bring it into view.
Like any astronomical target, HIP 93591 is best seen from a dark site away from city lights, and when it is above the horizon depends on your latitude and the time of year. The visibility panel above works out tonight's viewing window for your saved location.
HIP 93591 scores 15 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the common tier. Another 7 points would lift it into a rarer tier.
That score comes from 3 science badges — Star, Distant (over 1,000 light-years) and Hot blue B-type star — each earned for a real, measurable property of the object. Rarity on Spacedle is never random: the more remarkable an object's astrophysics, the more badges it collects, the higher it scores, and the rarer it ranks.
