a triple star whose main component is blue-white and the guide is dark blue. The difference between their brightnesses is quite significant (3.6mag and 7.8mag), but with their 15" separation from each other, we should be able to distinguish them with a small telescope. The other companion 9.4mag lies 115" from the main component. Just to the northeast lie two 20" wide pairs of white stars.
