A second look at Vesta
Vesta was visible again tonight. It was smokey at 9:30 and Vesta kept popping in and out of the haze but it was clearly visible in my 7x35's. Gamma Leo was visible unaided as was dimmer Eta Leo but I had to use binoculars to split the double Gamma Leo and 40 Leo pair. Vesta forms a right triangle with the pair with Vesta just below 40 Leo by about 15'. Vesta should be right in between the pair tomorrow night and will be a nice sight if it is clear.
