Description
At first glance, Mu Scorpii looks like a fairly wide binary. In actuality, the pair is actually composed of two unrelated binary systems officially named Xamidimura and Pipirima. Xamidimura is an eclipsing binary, where one star eclipses the other roughly every 34 hours, while Pipirima has at least one and possibly two planets.My Equipment:
