'''HD 51418''' ('''NY Aurigae''') is an [[Ap and Bp stars|Ap star]] and an [[Alpha2 Canum Venaticorum variable|α2 CVn variable]] located about {{convert|178|pc|ly}} away in the northern [[constellation]] of [[Auriga]]. With an [[apparent magnitude]] of 6.67 and a [[stellar classification|spectral type]] of A0, it can be faintly visible by the [[naked eye]] as a whitish dot under very good circumstances. The star has been noted as an "extreme [[lanthanide]] star," with an overabundance of [[metal]]s including [[europium]], [[dysprosium]], and [[holmium]], which can be observed in the star's spectra as [[emission line]]s.
