15 Sagittarii is a blue-hued binary star[10] system in the southern zodiac constellation of Sagittarius. The estimated distance based upon photometry is around 4,200 ly (1,300 pc).[7] It is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.37.[2] The system is moving closer to the Sun with a heliocentric radial velocity of around −6 km/s.[6]

Chini et al. (2012) identify this as a double-lined spectroscopic binary star system.[10] It shows a stellar classification of O9.7 Iab,[3] matching a massive O-type supergiant star. Along with the O-type star 16 Sgr (HD 167263), it is ionizing an H II region along the western edge of the molecular cloud L291.[11]

The Washington Double Star Catalog lists four companions within a 2 arcsecond angular radius.[12]
