Description:
Wider spaced and more magnitude difference that its
earlier teammate above, it was still easily split in the low power. I
saw the primary as yellow with the secondary too faint for color. While
there are a far amount of other stars in the FOV, it was not a dense as
the 1045 FOV. It did seemed to be outlined in sort of a triangle formed
by some rows of stars, but there were gaps in this.
