a binary star consisting of two components of 5.3mag and 8.9mag brightness at a distance of 3.2". To resolve them, we will need a telescope with an objective lens diameter of at least 10 cm and an eyepiece with a shorter focal length. After all, even at 200mm and 200x magnification, there is only a tight pair of pale and blue components.
