Congratulations on this excellent venture… what a great idea!

I use WIKI 2 every day and almost forgot how the original Wikipedia looks like.
U Aquarii, abbreviated U Aqr, is a variable star in the equatorialconstellation of Aquarius. It is invisible to the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude that ranges from 10.6 down to as low as 15.9.[3] Based on parallax measurements, the distance to this star is approximately 38 kly (12 kpc). In 1990, W. A. Lawson and associates provided a distance estimate of 43 kly (13.2 kpc) based on the assumption of a bolometric magnitude of −5.[5] It appears to lie several kiloparsecs below the galactic plane, and thus may belong to an old stellar population.[4]
The stellar classification of this star is C-Hd,[4] and it is classified as a R Coronae Borealis variable.[3] It is a carbon star with a hydrogen-deficientspectra that also shows evidence of s-process elements,[4] including overabundances of strontium and yttrium, but no barium.[10] This combination of properties is exceptionally rare; only one other example has been found as of 2012.[11] The elemental abundances are explained as the result of a single neutron exposure event, which is difficult to reconcile with a conjecture that this may be a post-AGB-type star.[10] In 1999, U Aqr was proposed to be a Thorne-Zytkow object, instead of being a simple R Coronae Borealis variable.[12]
