97 Aquarii (abbreviated 97 Aqr) is a binary star system in the equatorial constellation of Aquarius. 97 Aquarii is the Flamsteed designation. The combined apparent visual magnitude of the system is 5.20; [2] the brighter star is magnitude 5.59 while the companion is magnitude 6.72. [3] Based upon an annual parallax shift of 15.30 milliarcseconds, [1] this system is at a distance of around 210 light-years (64 parsecs) from Earth.
The two stars in this system orbit each other over a period of 64.62 years at an eccentricity of 0.14. [3] Both are A-type main sequence stars; the primary has a stellar classification of A2 V while its companion is A7 V. [4] Their composite spectrum shows the properties of a Lambda Boötis star, which means it displays peculiar abundances of certain elements. [9]
