Colorful doubles for Feb 2008
In a prior thread, Tyler wrote on 2-10-2008: <snip> I would also appreciate a few suggestions for
the coming month, if you have any recommendations that are particularly striking.
Sorry for the delay in responding. Here's a list of the current sky: http://members.csolutions.net/fisherka/astronote/tours/200802ColorfulDoubles... Almost of these are on the Belmont Colorful Double Star list: http://www.jouscout.com/astro/belmont/belmontd.htm My table is filter for those that are or will be above 60 degrees altitude between 9pm and 11pm MST near LST 6:00-8:00. I'll get the rest of the returns mentioned in my prior post in a few days. - Kurt P.S. - Here are some images by Damien Peach of color contrast binaries http://www.damianpeach.com/binaries.htm - and a few by Anthony Ayiomamitis http://www.perseus.gr/Astro-Star-Binaries.htm - and another gallery http://www.thedirks.org/astro/astro-star.html ____________________________________________________________________________________ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo!

Kurt Thanks for the double star info. I'm sorry my response was slow, but I have been working down south for a while. I'll look these over and pick out a few nice ones. BTW I enjoyed Damian's images. Maybe they will help me to get motivated for a little double star imaging: if the sky ever clears up! I need another fix soon.... I'm starting to get the shakes again! :) Tyler
