Hi to you, too, Alex . . .
If Djorg 2 is not exactly big news in the enthusiast forums like IIS, it’s all but terra incognita in the professional literature. Since Djorgovski’s
1987 discovery paper there has not been one dedicated study of it. There’s no CMD of it and no one has logged its orbital parameters. It’s mentioned by its official name ESO 456-SC 038 in 16 general papers about this or that occurrence frequency, e.g. binaries or X-ray emission, but aside from a table entry or footnote the poor thing is awful lonesome out there. We must be its only fan club. And if the
NED image are to be trusted, we also seem to be seeing it as a lot grander than the catalog images have it. A UK Schmidt image of it has been its official class portrait since 1994. It looks a but wan in that image, just as the WikiSky image of it looks way too saturated. Its 3.2 mags of extinction hasn’t helped its case much. Except for a few fans like us, it might as well be not there. We should send it a Get Well card or something.
Sure is in a pretty field, though.
