Eta Lyrae, a name Latinized from η Lyrae, is a likely binary star[11] system in the northern constellation of Lyra. It has the traditional name Aladfar /əˈlædfɑːr/ and is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.43.[2] The system is located at a distance of approximately 1,390 light years from the Sun based on parallax, but is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −8 km/s.[1]
