Description:
In Pisces, located in the SE portion of the constellation. 77 Pscis, in fact, a  weaker Alya (in Serpens). That means that the components are very close and of similar brightness. In spite of the proximity of the components, these two stars are quite separated individually. The stars are so close so that I can't give any colour. Interesting sight, a little like Psi1 Psc but weaker.
