m Herculis


Mu Herculis is another convenient star with an interesting neighbour.

The binocular view of mu reveals a distinctive asterism, a truncated triangle and the solitary mu to the west: binoculars.

Among the stars here is the striking binary of two identical white stars, 100 Herculis, 5.8, 5.8; 183º and separation 14", best suited for small telescopes.
