Summary[edit]

Description
English: Gemini South DSSI image of star pair occulted by Orcus’ satellite Vanth. Image reveals bright primary star in the center of the image and a companion at upper right (approximately 2:00 position). The other “star” at lower left (8:00 position) is an artifact of processing. This image consists of 1000 seconds of data subtracted to remove atmospheric distortions to reveal the close binary pair responsible for the Vanth double occultation.
