Though Mu Herculis appears as a single star in this image, it is in fact a multiple system consisting of pair of binaries. The bright central star is a yellowsubgiant with a reddwarf in a very close orbit, and in combination these comprise the 'A' component (also known as Mu1Herculis or Mu Herculis Aab). Slightly to the southwest (though not separately distinguishable in this image) is a second pair of reddwarfstars, the BC component (also designated Mu2Herculis). Imagery provided by Aladin sky atlas
