binary (39.50 year period).
BC 1889: 0.2 @ 135. Over 100 measurements. It is a rapid binary with a 39.5 year
period. The maximum separation is only 0.23" and the motion is direct.
Observations:
C8 at 104x. Webb saw them as gW, bW. Franks saw W, L. Others have seen W,
pY, sometimes B. The color of the companion seemd to give Webb fits.
