Object(s): Taygeta (19 Tau) - Negative report
Category: Multiple star.
Class:
Constellation: Tau
Data: mag 4.3 + 10.0 size
Position: RA 03:46 DEC 24:29
Description:
Member of the Pleiades. The primary star is quite visible but the secondary is much too weak for it (magv = 10,0, sep. = 69,0 ", PA = 330°) to be distinguished individually. I had almost any hope to separate this double star, but I tested it nevertheless. The primary star is white color.
