in a small telescope, an unevenly bright pair of stars in contact with each other, a sparkling contrast of orange and blue. In a larger telescope, we can separate them with 175x magnification. The yellow component has a brightness of 5.3mag, the blue component of 8.6mag lies 3" apart. The two 10mag companions are a little further away.
