Chi Sagittarii

The Bayer designation Chi Sagittarii (χ Sagittarii) is shared by three star systems in the zodiac constellation of Sagittarius. The brightest of these, χ1 Sagittarii and χ3 Sagittarii, are separated by 0.56° on the sky. The dimmer star χ2 Sagittarii is located between them, 0.10° from χ1, and is too faint to be seen with the naked eye. In 1977, the Wow! signal came from the direction of these stars.

In Chinese, (), meaning "Dog", refers to an asterism consisting of χ1 Sagittarii and 52 Sagittarii. Consequently, χ1 Sagittarii itself is known as (, .)
