Gamma volantis.
Was looking at my usual clusters and doubles around Crux . Then decided to revisit this cracker of a double ..EXTREMELY UNDERRATED AND BRIGHT..GAMMA VOLANTIS .
07h*08m*42.38187sDeclination−70°*29 ′*49.5073″ Fantastic.
Separation is ...
14.1" MAGS 3.68 , 5.68 ..Gold/ Blue ..to me.. SAO 256374 ..Can use Binos, but loves power ..crank it up..used doublet Refractor of 6" , and one of my good" B" EPs a TS DUAL ED 3.2....Black sky , sharp , and nicely framed...top EP for the budget conscious; give both a go if you can.
PS:Its not far from the False Cross.
