α Lup - The brightest star of the constellation. It varies in apparent magnitude from 2.3mag to 2.8mag in a period of 0.260 days. It has a faint companion with a magnitude of 13.4mag. It is located 460 light-years away.

η Lup - The triple star system, whose main component has a blue-white color and the companion has a dark blue color. The difference in their brightness is quite significant (3.6 mag and 7.8 mag), but with their separation of 15", we should be able to distinguish them even with a small telescope. The second companion, with a magnitude of 9.4, is located 115" away from the main component. Just to the northeast, there are two pairs of white stars, each 20" wide.

κ Lup - A nice double star, whose white components with magnitudes of 3.9 and 5.8 have a separation of 26.8", so a telescope with a 5 cm objective is sufficient for their resolution. It is only an optical double star.

μ Lup - A triple star system, whose main two white components have a magnitude of 5.1mag and 5.2mag. They are located in close proximity of 1.2" and are a good test for a 100 mm telescope. The brighter component also has a yellow companion of magnitude 7.3mag, which is located at a distance of 23.7" and is visible even in a smaller telescope.

π Lup - A nice system of almost equally bright pale blue stars, which however requires a relatively large magnification to be able to distinguish it. The stars are only 1.4" apart. Their magnitudes are 4.6 and 4.7. They are located at a distance of 440 light years.

ξ Lup - Clear, relatively wide pair (10.4"), easily distinguishable in small telescopes. The components have magnitudes of 5.3 and 5.8, with observers perceiving their colors differently: some see them as light yellow, while others say that one has a white and the other a greenish tint. Generally, stars with an AO spectrum appear white to pale blue.

SN 1006 - In the constellation, the brightest recorded supernova in human history erupted in the past. It was noticed by the inhabitants of China and Japan, as well as the Middle East and Europe. When it first appeared in the sky in the spring of 1006, it was about as bright as Mars in opposition. However, within a few weeks, it easily surpassed Venus and brightened to -7.5 magnitude, equivalent to the brightness of the Moon in the first quarter. The supernova remained visible for the next two years, and even briefly during the day. Today, we only observe a cloud of debris from the ancient stellar explosion at this location.

Herschel 4788 - A binary star, which is a good test for a 100-150 mm telescope. During a calm night, this unequally bright pair of white and yellow stars appears as two disks in contact. However, if there is any turbulence in the atmosphere, the stars merge into one elongated droplet. They are separated by 2.2" and their magnitudes are 4.7mag and 6.7mag, respectively.
