Observing Notes
Captain William Henry Smyth
Nov 18, 1831 No. 6 The Crescent, Bedford, England (map)
150mm f/17.6 refractor by Tully 1827
A close double star, very near the wing of Musca, and forming the apex of a nearly equilateral triangle with the two brightest in that insect. A 8, B 8½, both cream-white. This lovely object is in a barren field, and by no means of easy measurement. The earliest micrometric results I meet with are those of Sir James South, No. 418:Pos. 294°17' Dist. 2".903 Ep. 1825.78
