I emailed Mark and asked him what magnitude his stars are, and i was going
to see if he can photograph the star chart, so we can see where they are,
exactly.
Waiting on response.

if you want to
If this is an "I bought us a star" deal… we could show 2 reasonable
magnitude stars in Cepheus and no one would likely be the wiser….
I'm good with that.
We should. Let me send you what Mark sent me, as the plan for Oct 17 with
Mary. Hang a minute, i will copy and paste.

Here's what I got…. From Starry Nights V 7… and I REALLY Dug around
The closest thing to "A" is TYC 4469-1392-1 its at RA 21 23 15.2
and Dec 72 20 10.7 and it's a Magnitude 11.18 Hubble would have
trouble finding it
The closest thing to "B" is TYC 4468-295-1 it's at RA 21 3 54 and
Dec 72 5 72,20 and it's a magnitude 10.12
There is NOTHING else in the sky there that mankind has discovered yet
If this is an "I bought us a star" deal… we could show 2 reasonable
magnitude stars in Cepheus and no one would likely be the wiser….
However, there is NOTHING at those coordinates, and if there was, you
couldn't find it with anything short of a 4 meter scope.

Just a wild guess, but perhaps someone paid a business to name stars
after their kids or other relatives and now they want to see what they paid
for. Good luck. Sam

Terri,
Where did you get these coordinates from? I don't see anything in Cepheus
with those specific coordinates for either star. And everything in that
general area is magnitude 6 or 7 from what I can tell.
Still looking at resources

Can one of my wonderful Star Tours team members, who has a little time on
their hands, do me a very huge favor.
Can you find these two stars, point them out on a star chart, and give
that back to me? Like on Stellarium or someplace, that we can print a star
chart from, would be helpful.
Many thanks
This is for Mary's event on Oct 17.
All help is appreciated.
Here's the stars I need to be found.
They are in the constellation of Cepheus
and what I need to know if if they can be seen in
one of our scopes, as 2 stars in one FOV.
Let's call them Star A and Star B just so i know which one you are
referring to, when you put them on a chart for me. Just label them A or B,
that would be appreciated. Thanks.
A - RA 21h 23m 33.85s
Dec 72" 18' 6.32"
B - RA 21h 3m 28.30s
Dec 72" 2' 54.36"
Many thanks for your help. I'd do it, and i wanted to, but these taxes
have me so busy.
So, send me what you find, in a star chart format, showing star A and B
on it, marked. And then let me know if we can see it through a telescope,
in one FOV.
Terri
