[Lvas] Sketch/Log Template

[roger ivester]

Jim,
 
Do I have your permission to forward your e-mail to others in this area? 
 
 
 
LVAS all,
 
Tom English sent me an e-mail yesterday. He is hopeful that we will select Sirius and the companion to be the "observers challenge" for either January or February. We may get a lot of participation on this one. It would be pretty simple...can you see "The Pup". 
 
This would put anyone who observes the faint companion in an elite group of observers from the past. Very few present day observers have seen "Sirius B".


Will it be possible? 

 

I have never tried in the past 25 years due to the close orbit of "B".

 
Jim saw it through the famous 30-inch refractor at the Alleghany Observer in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania back in the 60's.   
 
 Should we tentatively "pencil" this one in? 
 
roger

Thought this might help anyone sketching or logging observations if you don't already have a template.
