106 Aquarii, abbreviated 106 Aqr, is a single[11] star in the equatorial constellation of Aquarius. 106 Aquarii is the Flamsteed designation, and it also bears the Bayer designation i1 Aquarii. It has an apparent visual magnitude of +5.2,[3] making it bright enough to be viewed from the suburbs according to the Bortle Dark-Sky Scale. An annual parallax shift of 8.61[6] milliarcseconds yields an estimated distance of around 380 light-years (120 parsecs) from Earth.

The spectrum of this star fits a stellar classification of B9 V,[4] indicating this is a B-type main sequence star. It is spinning rapidly with a projected rotational velocity of 328 km/s.[8] The star has 3[8] times the mass of the Sun and is radiating 152[7] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 11,555 K.[8] X-ray emission with a luminosity of 6.0×1029 erg s−1 has been detected from this star. This is unusual since a B-type star normally does not have any significant X-ray emission. Instead, it may have an undetected lower mass companion.[12]
