Excerpt: This is the list of notable stars in the constellation Draco. This list of nearest stars contains all known stars and brown dwarfs at a distance of up to five parsecs (16.308 light-years) from the Solar System, ordered by increasing distance. In addition to the Solar System, there are another 50 stellar systems currently known lying within this distance. These systems contain a total of 61 hydrogen-fusing stars and 8 brown dwarfs. All of them are in the Milky Way Galaxy, and more specifically within the Local Spur. Only nine of these objects (about 13%) have an apparent magnitude less than 6.5, and thus can possibly be observed with the naked eye; the lower the apparent magnitude the brighter they appear to observers on Earth. Besides the Sun, only three are first-magnitude stars: Alpha Centauri, Sirius, and Procyon. Stars visible to the naked eye have their magnitude shown in light blue below. The classes of the stars and brown dwarfs are shown in the color of their spectral types. These colors...
