Hey all

I was just putting my double star sketches into the computer when I noticed something interesting. I was inputting Struve 268 in Perseus when I saw that I had sketched a perfect replica of Cassiopeia just below the double, the distinctive W was there and I was wondering if anyone else had noticed this before?

Yes, I noticed this recently here...

On the shot near the bottom of the set there is an inverted Vega and Deneb and just below centre on the far right of that shot is a fake Cassiopeia. It is not Cassiopeia as it is too small and the wrong way up. Is that what you're seeing?

Hey Seanie.

If you tell me how to upload the sketch I made I would be happy to share.
