This is a mystery star to me, my Megastar doubles map dropping in Dunlop 178 in the same spot, just East of Lambda Lup. This is a bonus as Bos is a tight 1.2" and impossible tonight. While those ancient splitters argue the case in the land of the Long White Cloudless Sky, a delightful Yellow and Orange pair lie well - separated tonight at this spot.
