[vsnet-alert 3329] Re: (fwd) A blue variable object



     I agree with Kato-san that this appears to be a pretty typical red
variable.  The IRAS 12/25 ratio is ~2, typical for semiregular or Mira.
The odd USNO-A2.0 color almost certainly results from the red/blue sky survey
plates having been taken at different times.  (Only for POSS-I were the
plates taken on the same night as a requirement.)
     There is no spectral type for the IRAS source in MacConnell's IR
objective-prism survey, I think because it is a little too far off the
galactic plane.
