The stars are aligning for something legendary…
🗓️ June 17, witness the ‘Double Star’ Event
🏁 It’s time to race under a sky that only shines once every 1,000 years.

🔥 Save the date.

After dark, Vega shines as the brightest star high in the east. Barely lower left of it is 4th-magnitude Epsilon Lyrae, the Double-Double. Epsilon forms one corner of a roughly equilateral triangle with Vega and Zeta Lyrae.

The picture shows a pair of double stars in Lyrae, known as Epsilon 1 and 2. Each stars shows the Airy disk, with a small ring of light around it, the first diffraction ring. This pattern is caused by light passing through the circular opening of the telescope.

A beautiful sight in anything but the smallest telescopes, the double #doublestar Epsilon Lyrae. Imaged last night with my #takahashi #mewlon 210, #televue 2.5x barlow lens and #PlayerOneAstronomy Neptune M camera.

An astronomer observes Alpha Centauri through the Magellan Clay Telescope's eyepiece using a new active adaptive optics system (MagAO). The inset shows a diffraction-limited view of the binary star system, showcasing the system's ability to eliminate atmospheric blurring for incredibly sharp images.

Tex Schramm invented that color to look good on TV in the 70's. And Jerry doesn't like change. Look what happened in '94/'95 with the #doublestar jersey and SF loss...
