Pluto
Spot Pluto: click on the image to toggle between two shots and look for a small "star" that changes location (from left of centre to right of centre, then back and forth). Pluto was in Sagittarius and shining feebly at magnitude 14 when this pair of pictures were shot on 11 and 19 October, 2012. Indistinguishable from a star, only its movement betrays it.
The brightest stars in the field are about magnitude 10 or 11, the faintest, about magnitude 17. These images are crops from originals made with an 11-inch Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope at 2,800mm focal length.
