I would say that the brightest object, middle left near the top is a planet. I don't think there is a bright star in that region according to my map. |

The star extreme right middle is Aldeberan. I don't want to sound negative but no, it's not. The star extreme right middle is Alderamin (alpha Cephei) >I would say that the brightest object, middle left near the top is a >planet. That's Almach (gamma Andromedae). >I don't think there is a bright star in that region according to my map. Almach ;-) -- Pete http://www.digitalsky.org.uk |
