I have aimed at the star Mu Vir, and just watched Milstar 6 which is flaring appear to pass across it, when using the wide feild method of observing.

Milstar 6 is easily mag 8 are brighter, not bad for something over 37000 km away. So nice it's got a big main body, covered in material which reflect's alot of light.

Time is 5:37 UTC ( May 11 )
