Imaged triple star κ Andromedae (aka HR 8976) with the BGO in search of the B partner. Easily spotted in the digital rendering.
Luminance only, 1 second subexposures, 12 stacked shots. FITS Liberator, Paint.NET. North is up; east is left.
Aimed at GSC 03244-1100.
B is to the south-south-west, about half or one-third the distance to C. They seem equal brightness (once again, SkyTools and the WDS said both were 11.3). I wonder now why I hadn't spotted the element on 4 Sep '19.
