      SemiMajorAxis    20400
      Eccentricity     0.054900
      Inclination      5.15
   }

   Obliquity      23.45 # mean axis

can someone provide me a sample of a binary star? I've looked through the star data, but it confuses me.

All of the stars in spectbin.stc and visualbin.stc are binaries.


e.g.
ALF And = ALF And A & ALF And B
ZET UMa = ZET UMa A & ZET UMa B
