Symbiotic R Aquarii
R Aquarii is a binary star system, 710 light-years away, composed of a cool red giant and a hot, dense white dwarf. Material from the red giant is drawn by gravity onto the white dwarf, creating a dynamic interaction. This system is a long-recognized variable star, visible to the naked eye.
