	Arneb (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		Yet that brightest one, Arneb (the Alpha star), is well worth a look, its Arabic name meaning and epitomizing "the Hare." The star is easy to find, as it is makes the southern apex of a triangle with the two bottom stars of Orion, Rigel and Saiph (Beta and Kappa Orionis).
		Arneb seems to be single, an apparent dim companion half a minute of arc away probably just lying in the line of sight.
		The ageing process has left Arneb with a somewhat odd chemical composition, its nitrogen content five times higher than that of the Sun's, the result of the fusion of hydrogen into helium through the "carbon cycle," in which carbon is used as a nuclear catalyst, nitrogen produced as a by-product and brought to the surface.

		Look for the nice color contrast: Arneb is distinctly yellow, while the faint star almost appears a blue-green color at medium-high power.
		At only 115 light years it is obviously not as luminous a star as Arneb, since its magnitude is nearly the same: 2.8.This is a true TRIPLE star, but is among the most difficult of all for amateur telescopes.
		It is comparable to attempting to see the companion to the bright star Sirius (see my discussion about attempting to see such doubles at: http://www.weasner.com/etx/ref_guides/sirius.html), where the primary star is so overshadowingly bright that the companion star is masked from the glare.
