This shows how close it is to Mimosa (Beta Crucis)
I gotta go with Ken here, that little star can keep me occupied for ten or twenty minutes, and then later in the night I will come back to it just to make sure it hasn't gone anywhere.

Space is so deep that I tend to stick in one little area at a time and explore. Looking at Mimosa with a fellow member last time out we found two little stars very close by that are rarely visable. They kept winking in and out, a real challenge to see and I'm sorry I didn't draw them up in the log for later reference. The whole of crux could keep me satisfied for years I think, but it's nice to have the rest of space there for when the best part sinks lower than the range of my office chair.
