I like to think of our next target, the constellation of Aquila, the eagle, as a little sister to Cygnus: it is also named after a bird, has a similar cross shape and sits next to Cygnus in the sky.

Located in the constellation Aquila (the Eagle) Altair is 16.8 light-years from Earth, making it one of the closest stars visible to the naked eye. It's also the 12th brightest star in the night ...

Named Gaia BH3, it has a mass that is nearly 33 times that of our sun, and it’s located 1,926 light-years away in the Aquila constellation, making it the second-closest known black hole to Earth.
