32Nu Aql is an epic star. It lies about 2,836.1 light-years from Earth, sits in the constellation Aql, shines at apparent magnitude 4.64 and has spectral type F2Ib.
Its spectrum reads F2Ib — an F-type star — a little hotter, whiter and shorter-lived than the Sun.
Look for 32Nu Aql in the constellation Aql. At apparent magnitude 4.64, it can be glimpsed with the unaided eye under dark skies.
Like any astronomical target, 32Nu Aql 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.
32Nu Aql scores 58 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the epic tier. Another 20 points would lift it into a rarer tier.
That score comes from 6 science badges — Star, Distant (over 1,000 light-years), Naked-eye visible, Yellow-white F-type star, Supergiant and Blindingly luminous (Mv < −5) — 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.
