Description

Under https://www.astrobin.com/rawdata/publicdatapools/117/ Chris Gomez provided this wonderful data. Thank you!

However hard I try I cannot really bring out Merope's ghost as others have done - if you know where to look it is just about visible. It is just to the right of the star, on the diffraction line - on the diagonal from the star itself... at 1.30 on the clock face. Anyway, I am pleased to have been able to process this...
