Finding Pluto

Submitted by astroyyz@gmail.com on 19 July 2014

Ever seen Pluto?

Here's an animation of Pluto taken in July by Paul Mortfield, from Sierra Remote Observatories, CA, USA.  Click on the image to see this dwarf planet move.

Says Paul "Field is ½ degree wide, with North up, East is to the left. The bright star is SAO 187324 shining brightly at mag 5.2."
