11 Aquarii (abbreviated 11 Aqr) is a sunlike star (G1V) in the constellation of Aquarius with an apparent magnitude is 6.22. 11 Aquarii is the Flamsteed designation. It is approximately 86 ly from Earth and is a main-sequence star of spectral type G1 and luminosity class V. Compared to the Sun, this star has a higher abundance of elements more massive than helium. This indicates it belongs to a class of stars called metal-rich. The star is about the same age as the Sun, but it has slightly more mass and has a larger radius.[2][5]
