This double is wide, easily split at 49x with an 8 inch scope. The best view is at 81x, however. The primary is bright white, with a tinge of blue, and the companion is a few magnitudes fainter, appearing a dull yellow, almost brown. That's an unusual star color, and it might be due to either atmospheric effects or the relative faintness of the secondary.
