46 Aquilae is a star in the constellation of Aquila, located to the north of Tarazed (γ Aquilae). 46 Aquilae is its Flamsteed designation. It is a dim, blue-white hued star that is a challenge to view with the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 6.33.[2] This object is located approximately 830 light years from the Sun, based on parallax.[1] It is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −25 km/s.[2]

This body has a stellar classification of B9 III,[7] matching a late B-type giant star. It is a chemically peculiar star of a weak Mercury-Manganese type (CP3),[8] and is the most chromium–deficient star known.[9] The star may possess a magnetic field with a strength greater than 2 kG.[10] It is radiating 180[2] times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 12,900 K.[5]
