[Aavso-photometry] what happened to these stars?

[Yenal Ogmen]

Hi all,

I was just imaging the asteriod 723 Hammonia and I
found that I imaged something odd. First I thought
that it was a galaxy then I checked The Sky6 and saw
that it should be the following star:

Object name: GSC 4949:1092
Magnitude: 13.3
Equatorial: RA: 12h 45m 32s   Dec: -00°30'15"(current)
Equatorial 2000: RA: 12h 45m 09s   Dec: -00°27'42"

In the same image another star diffuses too:

Object name: GSC 4949:159
Magnitude: 8.3
Equatorial: RA: 12h 45m 56s   Dec: -00°34'42"(current)
Equatorial 2000: RA: 12h 45m 32s   Dec: -00°32'10"

You can see the image from the following link:

I checked MPC if they are Asteroid or Comet but they
are not. To eliminate the possibility of reflection of
light in the optics of my telescope, I imaged the same
area by moving telescope a bit, in different
directions. Can anyone tell me what happened to these
stars?

Thank you.
