Question for Dennis

Is it possible to capture an image of pluto's moon Charon. Its listed at Mag 16.5 but this is not out of reach of a large scope 12 inch and up coupled to a sensitive CCD camera, or is the anglular separation to small for our scopes to resolve it from pluto even in ideal seeing.

Cheers,

Matt.
