| | 85 Pegasi 3 |
| | (1931-93), 85 Pegasi was found to be a fairly close binary by noted double-star observer Sherburne Wesley Burnham (1838-1921) with the 18-inch refractor at Dearborn in 1878, who listed it in his catalogue as BU 733. | | | Deficient in heavy elements, the system also a high space velocity and appears to be relatively old at around 9.3 +/- 0.5 billion years old based on these and other considerations (Fernandes et al, 2002; Perrin et al, 1977; and Wallerstein and Helper, 1959). | | | Two nearby faint stars in the system's field are believed to be optical companions, as they do not share the system's large proper motion. |

| | Since its three principal stars have almost the same brightness, Beyer simply lettered them Alpha, Beta, and Gamma in order, Alpha and Beta tied for the lead in apparent magnitude. | | | (The other star is Elnath, Beta Tauri, which links Taurus to Auriga and is also called Gamma Aurigae.) If you draw a line through Alpheratz and Algenib, Gamma Pegasi to the south, it will pass just to the east of the vernal equinox in Pisces. | | | Mid-second magnitude Apheratz, the Alpha star, connects Andromeda (the Lady) with Pegasus, the Flying Horse that carried Perseus to Andromeda's rescue. |

| | Pegasus |
| | Pegasus is part of the Zodiacal constellation of Aquarius (?) where the first known planet, 51 Pegasi, outside of our own was discovered in 1995. | | | As the discovery has been made in the "Age of Aquarius" this is considered, by some, to be a most significant and spiritual finding. | | | Trismegistic teachings tell that the white horse symbolizes purified passion, which, like other Poseidonic signs, relates to our conscious efforts to gain some control over the often turgid waters of the deep unconscious. |

| | The distinctive Great Square of Pegasus is marked by the stars Alpha Pegasi (or Markab), Beta Pegasi (or Scheat), Gamma Pegasi (or Algenib), and Alpha Andromedae (Alpheratz) and so isn’t officially completely within the constellation of Pegasus. | | | Kappa was discovered to be a binary star by S. Burnham in 1880, using the 36-inch refractor on Mt. Hamilton. | | | There are several smaller, fainter galaxies to the east of NGC 7331 that may be associated with it in some way; they may be traveling through space together. |

| | Its characteristic feature is a big square, whose angles are shown by stars of second and third magnitude, although only three of them belong to Pegasus: the fourth one is the first star of Andromeda and once it was also called delta Pegasi. | | | The brightest star of the constellation, however, is not a member of the big square, but it is in the southern part: it is Enif, an orange supergiant, approximately 500 light-years away. | | | The constellation of Pegasus is the seventh one of the whole sky in order of extension, but it doesn't contain any particularly bright stars. |

| | Now if you move to the west-southwest the same distance from delta Pegasi to alpha you'll encounter the brightest star in Pegasus, epsilon (Enif). | | | The 2.5 magnitude star forms the southwest corner of the Great Square of Pegasus, easiest to find with the naked eye. | | | This Great Square is formed by delta Pegasi (Alpheratz) to the northeast, Scheat (beta Pegasi) to the northwest, Markab to the southwest, and Algenib (gamma Pegasi) to the southeast. |
