LP Aquarii is a pulsating variable star in the constellation of Aquarius that varies between magnitudes 6.30 and 6.64.[3] The position of the star near the ecliptic means it is subject to lunar occultations.[11]
The star's variability was first detected in the Hipparcos satellite data, and it was given its variable star designation in 1999.[12]
