Large Proper Motion
This page introduces some of the stars with large proper motion, found in the amateur images offered to the MISAO Project.
Because the position of a star with large proper motion is different from the cataloged position in the USNO-A2.0, etc., it will be marked up as red after the examination using the PIXY System 2.
You can see the proper motion easily comparing with the DSS images, even in case of the amateur images.
The image size is about 6 arcmin.

Double Variable Star with Large Proper Motion
LHS 3 = GX And & LHS 4 = GQ And
LHS 3 = GX And R.A. 00h18m23s.12 Decl. +44o01'23".2 7.83 mag
LHS 4 = GQ And R.A. 00h18m26s.06 Decl. +44o01'38".8 9.31 mag
Francisco Manuel Rica Romero told me that this pair is designated as GRB 34 AB, a orbital double star with a period of 2600 years.
The image size is about 8.5 arcmin.
