Castor, also designated Alpha Geminorum (α Geminorum, abbreviated Alpha Gem, α Gem) is the second-brightest star in the constellation of Gemini and one of the brightest stars in the night sky. It appears single to the naked eye, but when using a telescope it can be resolved into a multiple star system made up of six individual stars formed into three binary pairs. Although it has the identifier 'alpha', it is fainter than Beta Geminorum (Pollux).
