Even if I had been using
my
8" scope, it would take near excellent conditions to split the A and B stars with their 91.85 DI, so I went for the easier C component [mag 9.1]. A and C are separated by a very comfortable 113.8" and form a cute little grouping with two nearby mag 9.5 and 9.9 stars. |

There is a trapezoid of
stars
near beta, composed of 3,4,5 and H2682. The later and 4 point ot this
pair.I wasn't able to see the companion until I used the 17mm, then I
could detect it clearly.
