Summary

Description
English: 5 minute exposure of the sun-like star 61 Virginis with a 12.5" telescope at 2009-12-27 12:30 UT (5:30 Rodeo, NM time). 61 Vir is a G5V class star slightly less massive than the Sun (G2V), located about 27.8 light-years away in the constellation of Virgo. It has an apparent magnitude of 4.74, making it a dim naked eye star under dark skies. This telescope has a field of view of 45.1 arcminutes. This is basically how the Sun would appear from a distance of 30 light-years.
Русский: Пятиминутная экспозиция солцеподобной звезды 61 Девы 12,5-дюймовым телескопом. Сделана 27.12.2009 в 12:30 по Всемирному координированному времени.
61 Девы - звезда класса G5V, немного менее массивная, чем Солнце (G2V), которая расположена на расстоянии около 27,8 световых лет от Земли в созвездии Девы. Видимая звёздная величина 4,74 делает её слишком тусклой на ночном небе для невооружённого глаза. У телескопа, сделавшего снимок, поле зрения составляет 45,1 угловую минуту. Звезда в кадре показывает как Солнце предположительно может выглядеть с расстояния 30-ти световых лет.
