This month's Astronomy Now has a "Triple Star of the Month" article (page 60): the Stargate asterism. Having located faint fuzzy M104 (yes I used GOTO for this!), I panned across (manually this time) to try to find this little beauty. Actually, it was quite easy to find from M104 and my 8mm Hyperion made it a very pleasant view. I couldn't make out the middle "C" star, but even so, it is a wonderful sight. There is another asterism nearby called "Jaws". Also easy to spot and again, quite distinctive. Both recommended viewing!
