At 71x, this was a faint,
but easy, pair. I thought the colors might be
bluish and reddish, but these were more impressions than seeing color.
Faint
stars are for the most part "colorless" to me. |

8:41pm PST. A little
challenging to find with just a few field stars in that area of Uranometria.
First
detected it at 66x. Got the cleanest, sharp separation at 91x.
Anything
higher was affected by poor seeing so didn't resolve anything
better. Primary about double the brightness of secondary. No color. |

very dim
white pair, wide and easy in the 12.5. I'm thankful for the goto with this one, it'd
be a tough find under these
conditions... Measured: 8.0 / 124.0 |
