Sharatan issue - blakesphere - 2020-08-10
I think there's a problem with Sharatan aka beta Arietis.
ST3 and ST4 report the separation as 65".
No way.
The WDS reports it at LESS THAN 0.06 at the widest!
A very fast binary and I got my hopes up...
No way I'll ever see that.

Yeah... too bad that. It looks like there was an error in the units for the semi-major axis as read from the source catalog. I have added it to the fix list. Thanks!
