Asteroid 3 Juno

[Stub Mandrel]

I got Juno last night, confusing at first as it wasn't exactly where Stellarium said it should be...

You can see the prominent asterism like an 'L' on its back, with Juno to the right - with a 1/4 magnitude of the corner star.

It took me far to long to figure out the missing asteroid was the extra star between the two in the horizontal arm of the L in my pic:

I've done a few asteroids now, I should do more, they are fun to track down. (I have a strange idea of fun...)

Well done.  That was nastily disguised :)

Should have read the text 1st, just spent a while trying to see it in the position stellarium showed 🙂
