23 Aquilae (abbreviated 23 Aql) is a binary star[9] in the equatorial constellation of Aquila. 23 Aquilae is its Flamsteed designation. It is at a distance of about 370 light-years (110 parsecs) with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.10.
The brightness of the star is diminished by 0.21 in magnitude because of extinction from interstellar dust and gas.[4] The primary component of this system is a magnitude 5.31 K-type giant star or bright giant with a stellar classification of K1.[10] At an angular separation of 3.25 arcseconds is a magnitude 8.76 companion star.[9]
