Psi 1 Aurigae (ψ 1 Aur, ψ 1 Aurigae) is a star in the northern constellation of Auriga. It is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.91. [ 2 ] Based upon a measured annual parallax shift of 0.44 mas , [ 1 ] it is approximately 7,500 light-years (2,300 parsecs ) distant from the Earth.
AB Aurigae is a young Herbig Ae star [3] in the Auriga constellation. It is located at a distance of approximately 509 light years from the Sun based on stellar parallax . [ 1 ] This pre-main-sequence star has a stellar classification of A0Ve, [ 4 ] matching an A-type main-sequence star with emission lines in the spectrum .
Capella was the brightest star in the night sky from 210,000 years ago to 160,000 years ago, at about −1.8 in apparent magnitude. At −1.1, Aldebaran was brightest before this period; it and Capella were situated rather close to each other in the sky and approximated boreal pole stars at the time.

59 Aurigae, often abbreviated as 59 Aur, is a star in the constellation Auriga. Its baseline apparent magnitude is 6.1, [3] meaning it can just barely be seen with the naked eye as a dim, yellow-white hued star. Based on parallax measurements, it is located about 483 light-years (148 parsecs) away from the Sun. [2]
Messier 38 or M38, also known as NGC 1912 or Starfish Cluster, [4] is an open cluster of stars in the constellation of Auriga. It was discovered by Giovanni Batista Hodierna before 1654 and independently found by Le Gentil in 1749. The open clusters M36 and M37, also discovered by Hodierna, are often grouped together with M38. [5]
AR Aurigae (AR Aur), also known by its Flamsteed designation 17 Aurigae, is a binary star in the constellation Auriga. Based on parallax measurements made by the Hipparcos spacecraft, it is approximately 461 light-years from Earth. [10] Both components are blue-white B-type main-sequence stars that do not fill their Roche lobes.
Psi 5 Aurigae (ψ 5 Aur, ψ 5 Aurigae) is a star [8] in the northern constellation of Auriga. It is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.25. [2] Based upon parallax measurements made during the Hipparcos mission, this star is approximately 53.9 light-years (16.5 parsecs) distant from Earth. [1]
