Figure 1. K-band view of the Galactic Center observed with NIRC2 (Keck) in 2019.30. The high-pass filtered image shows several members of the S-star cluster in the immediate vicinity of Sagittarius A*, whose position is indicated by a black cross. The star enclosed by the white dashed circle has a K-band magnitude of 16.3 mag, while the star marked by the blue circle has a magnitude of 17.0 mag. These magnitudes are consistent with the reported values for S62 and for S29 . North is up and east is to the left. [Adapted from
