Catweazel Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Hoorah! Just came across Castor whilst hopping about and didn't know it was a binary! Both stars looked yellow to me but I managed to get them nice and sharp in 5mm (10mm Barlowed). Anyway, that's my first one, so was excited and wanted to tell you all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianaiken Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 hehe well done. Get back out there, there are more to be seen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonshane Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 nice one. I really like Castor but see them as bright white. if you look with a little less power you can also see a tertiary star which from memory is part of the same system. this is well separated and a dim red colour.

Catweazel Posted January 26, 2012 Author Share Posted January 26, 2012 Thanks guys It's bloomin' well clouded over here now! Still, I guess those stars aren't going anywhere, so there's always next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
