Date & Time: 31-October-2000 (22 h 00 m UT) Seeing: 7.5 <1-10 Seeing Scale (10 best)> Location of site: Posadas (Córdoba), Spain 37º 48' N - 5º 08' 30" W 100 mts over sea level Site classification: Suburban Sky darkness: 6.1 <Limiting magnitude> Temperature: 7ºC Telescope: Helios 120 mm f/8.3 achromatic refractor Eye Piece(s): Plossl 10 mm, Microguide 12.5 mm, 2x Barlow, diagonal prism. |
Star: Burnham 997
00 h 04 m 57.51 s + 45º 40' 26.2" magnitudes: 7.54 (F8), 9.3 (Guide 6.0.) WDS 1996: 4"0 / 338º Observations: Using Plossl 10mm at 100x it separated into a very close
pair. The primary seemed peach and the companion pale red. The secondary
was dazzled with MicroGuide, but I was able to measure at 263x giving an
estimated PA of 340º and a separation of 4"08 (average of 3 measurements)
