Gamma Aries

One of my favourite doubles.

Easy to split and easy to find.

Took this pic at the end of the session on the 03/12/2006

For bright doubles the compact camera is easier to use than the S5600

Another nicely defined split Ian, how many to go before you complete the DS catalogue? :downtown:

There are over 100,000 entries in the WDS so it might take some time

The little compact camera can go down to mag 9 but using the LCD screen on the back I can only really see down to Mag 4.5.

I hope these pics give evertone a fairly realistc view of what they will see.

Thanks AM

I was pleased to see the subtle difference between an A1 & B9 spectral class.

I couldn't find any info in the Primanry but my guess is has just turned off the main sequence and is becoming a sub-giant.

The lower cooler colour but larger luminosity implies this.
