Rho Persei (Rho Per ρ Persei ρ Per) is a star in the northern constellation of Perseus. It has the traditional name Gorgonea Tertia being the third member of the quartet called the Gorgonea in reference to the Gorgons from the legend of Perseus. An apparent visual magnitude of +3.39 makes it visible to the naked eye but a challenge to view from a well-lit urban environment.
