52 Cygni.

[cotterless45]

All the many times that I've put in a filter and drifted along the Western Veil, NGC 6960, I never knew that 52 Cygni is a fine binary. At x50 I could just pick out the faint secondary. X200 brought out the very fine secondary, what a beautiful fine sight,

So according to them SAO is 70467 does that mean it is really 0704.67

Nice one Nick. It's not one I'd noticed before either. Was going to give it a bash....but you guessed it..... stubborn cloud right over it. Another time.

Star Splitters is an excellent resource! All fans of double-stars should 'Google & Bookmark' their site.

A wealth of knowledge. Great find, Nick!

I also agree that the Starsplitters website is an inspiring resource.

It's a very nice double. Here's my notes from my first observation on 6/9/14.

Thanks Nick. I was not aware that 52 Cygni was a double. Like most of us I use this star to hop to the Veil. I was also not aware of the star splitter website so once again Nick thanks.
