magnification of about 45x NGC
2392 will appear as a very small
fuzzy patch of light.
M 44 is one of the more well
known of open star clusters. This
cluster, also known as the
Beehive cluster, is of magnitude 4
and can be seen easily with the
naked eye. Look for a bright
fuzzy spot between the stars
Delta and Gamma in the
constellation of Cancer.
M 67 is also in the constellation
of Cancer and is of magnitude 6.
Binoculars will be needed to find
this open star cluster which is
about 8 degrees southeast of M 44.
The star Castor in Gemini is a
double star. A small telescope
will resolve this star into it’s two
components which are of magni
tudes 2 and 2.8.
The stars A and B on the
starmap are both variable stars.
Star A, which is Eta Geminorum,
changes from magnitude 3.1 to
3.9 and back again over a period
of 234 days. Star B, which is Zeta
Geminorum, changes from mag
nitude 3.7 to 4.1 and back again
over a period of just over 10 days.
ACCURATE CLOCK
Scientists at Johns Hopkins
University Applied Physics Lab-
ortary have developed a clock
that can measure time to a
trillionth of a second and remain
accurate to a millionth of a
second over three years. The
clock takes the form of a
hydrogen maser, a device that
measures time from energy
emitted by stimulated hydrogen
atoms.
