Regarded as one of the finest doubles in the sky, Albireo with it's the yellow-gold and bright blue pair makes for an exceptional color contrast. While the stars look nice at about any resolution, low powers seem best. The wide double is easily split, even in this rich region of stars and nebulae. |
