Dave, I have a Celestron 14" SCT. I have tried to place Sirius just outside of the upper left field of view (upper right before the star diagonal changes it) so I could see Sirius B without so much glare. But it doesn't work. It seems that I just must be picking all the wrong fuzzy days! I'll try again. I see it has moved farther north than I had thought.

The chart at: http://www.dibonsmith.com/cma_a.gif will give you position angle and seperation details. The seperation is growing and is already greater than when I was observing the companion. What scope setup are you using? Good luck, Dave Bennett On Mar 20, 2012, at 01:13 PM, Spencer Ball <spencer@spencerball.com> wrote: I'm wondering if anyone has seen Sirius B. I went out a few days ago with my scope and all I could ever see was a giant big blue 4th of July Sparkler! Is there really a Sirius B? Has anyone ever seen it?
