Tyler asked:
I would like to try imaging a few double stars at some point. Do you have any suggestions for colorful doubles that might be photogenic?
I have two lists - one in Excel that covers a compiled list of color contrast doubles from various sources above -38 declination. A second is in Astroplanner. For that list I extracted doubles listing color contrasts from Haas' _Double Stars for Small Telescopes_ (Sky Pub 2007) that pass within 20 degrees of the zenith for a 41N observing point. The Astroplanner list can be ported to Excel. What's your pleasure for a transfer format? Or I can give you a short list of two or three suggestions for the current month. It was cold, but still nice to stretch my legs for an hour. - Kurt ____________________________________________________________________________________ Looking for last minute shopping deals?
