Description

The planet watching continues to migrate to the morning.
Astronomers realized in 1844 that Sirius has a companion star. But it took 18 years before anyone built a telescope that could reveal it.
Sky watchers of long ago described Sirius as red. Why would they say that when the star is bluish-white?
