LL Aquarii is an eclipsing binary star system in the equatorial constellation of Aquarius, abbreviated LL Aqr. At peak brightness it has a combined apparent visual magnitude of 9.23, [1] which is too dim to be visible to the naked eye. Based on parallax measurements, it is located at a distance of approximately 447 light years from the Sun. [2]
