This is a fairly tight double. At 49X in an 8" scope, you can tell that the star was slightly elongated. 81X will give a strong suspicion of the companion, but it isn't a really clean split until you increase the magnification to 122X. Both stars are bright white, with the secondary being about a magnitude dimmer (5.8) than the primary (4.9). |
