HD 202908, also known as HIP 105200, is a triple star located in the equatorial constellation Equuleus. It has an apparent magnitude of 7.01,[17] making it readily visible in binoculars but not to the naked eye. When resolved, the components have apparent magnitudes of 7.25 and 8.87 respectively.[2] The system is located relatively close at a distance of 169 light years based on Gaia DR3 parallax measurements[9] but it is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 6.24 km/s.[8]
