Mirak or Pulcherrima - "beautiful". The second brightest star in the constellation is a beautiful double star in at least a 10 cm telescope, consisting of an orange component (2.7 mag) and a blue component (4.9 mag) creating a color contrast, with a separation of 2.9". However, you will need higher magnification and a calm night. The distance of the system is 200 light years. |
