LS 5039 is a binary system in the constellation of Scutum. It has an apparent magnitude of 11.27,[3] and it is about 8,200 light-years away.[4]

The "LS" in the system's name refers to the Luminous Stars catalogue which was published by Charles Bruce Stephenson and Nicholas Sanduleak in 1971.[6][7] In 2001, J. Simon Clark et al. announced that LS 5039 varies in brightness.[8] For that reason, it was given the variable star designation V479 Scuti, in 2006.[9] It is considered to be a possible microquasar.[10]

LS 5039 consists of a massive O-type main-sequence star, and a compact object (likely a black hole)[4] that emits HE (high energy) and VHE (very high energy) gamma rays. It is one of the only three known star systems of this kind, together with LS I +61 303 and PSR B1259-63. The two objects orbit each other every 3.9 days, along a moderately eccentric orbit.[4] Additionally, it is one of the few massive X-ray binaries known to be associated with radio emission.[11]
