yeah there isn't exactly a picture of OAO 1657-415 yet
- WR 121-16, a recently discovered galactic Wolf-Rayet star, a very dim transitional WR
- OAO 1657-415, a HMXB containing a Wolf-Rayet star and a neutron star, one of the only two WR HMXBs in the Milky Way (the other being Cygnus X-3)
- WR 128, the only known H-rich WN4 Wolf-Rayet star in the Milky Way
- WR 69, a WC9d star which rotates quite quickly
- WR 150, a WC5 Wolf-Rayet star
- WR 138a, a WN9h Wolf-Rayet star in a ring nebula
- Westerhout 49-2, one of the most massive stars known, possibly the most massive
- WR 120, a WN7 Wolf-Rayet star which was discovered to have a WN3/4 WR companion. It’s currently the only known WNE+WNE binary
- LHS 2924, a very small, cool and dim red dwarf
- V1936 Aquilae, a blue hypergiant and candidate LBV located in the nebula Westerhout 51
- HD 326823, a binary star containing a peculiar emission-line transitioning into a WN-type Wolf-Rayet star
- LHA 120-S 79, a very hot and very luminous RV Tauri variable located in the LMC
- IRAS 18357-0604, a very hot yellow hypergiant which is very similar to IRC +10420
- BAT99-7, an extremely broad-lined Wolf-Rayet star in the LMC
- NGC 6822-WR 12, a very bright Wolf-Rayet star in NGC 6822
- Abell 48, a planetary nebula in Aquila containing a rare WN-type central star
- MN18, a blue supergiant surrounded by a bipolar nebula
- W40 IRS 1A South, a young O-type star in the nebula Westerhout 40
- NGC 1624-2, the most magnetic known O-type star
- EC 11507-2253, a dying post-AGB star located in the outer halo, away from basically everything else
- WR 119, the dimmest Wolf-Rayet star known
- V1027 Cygni, a very luminous yellow supergiant (or hypergiant) which was thought to be a post-AGB star
- Gaia BH2, a nearby binary star containing a stellar-mass black hole
- Leo P, an irregular galaxy on the periphery of the Local Group
- HD 45166, a binary made up of an exotic quasi-Wolf-Rayet star and a B-type star
- Blue blob, an obscure type of intergalactic object
- BAT99-123, a very hot WO-type Wolf-Rayet star in the LMC
- Ursa Major III, the Milky Way's faintest and smallest satellite galaxy as of 2023
