Date & Time: December 23, 2000 23:00 UTC Seeing: 5-6 <1-10 Seeing Scale (10 best)>. Location of site: Annen, The Netherlands (53 N, 6 E) Site classification: Village-backyard Sky darkness: 4 <Limiting magnitude> Conditions: --- Temperature: -5° C Telescope: 8" SCT (Meade LX10) Magnification: 100x |
Using 100x (skies didn't
allow more) this is a real beautiful and colourful double. Star A is a
deep-yellow, almost "light-orange". Star B is very close to it and shows
no colour. Together they form a nice pair because of the small separation,
the magnitude difference and their oblique position which gives them a
somewhat "dynamic"appearance.

A dim pair,
mag 7 and 8, but fairly easy to split at lower power. Not much else to
say about this pair at this time.
