OV Boo - Good night last night

[Dave Smith]

After 3 nights of cloud a good night last night on OV Boo which continues to fade. I had 7 hours with only minor cloud interuptions until around 2:30 am. The first chart shows the last 7 days so each day's results look squashed up but the general trend can be seen. The second chart is just from last night. Tonight looks promising. All the results have been added to the BAA data base and also the aavso database.

That's a nice long run, Dave - well done!

Don't forget that after it's faded there may be one or more re-brightenings, or echo outbursts. So even when the current outburst is over, it's worth looking at it every night (assuming clear!) for the following week or 10 days

Thanks for the tip Jeremy. It's been clear for 3 hours or so tonight and the data is piling in
