(cba:news) v2491 cyg, redux (Joe Patterson) [2008-06-05T19:58:30Z]



I think V2491 Cyg is around 14th mag now - but have a look and see. The color is pretty red (from interstellar absorption), and so you could consider a red filter. When it gets much fainter, you'll be driven to unfiltered observation... and it's even possible that's required now. As usual, our interest is the TIME SERIES (to study for periodic signals) - but if you do use a standard filter, observe a standard star so we can calibrate the observation.

Good luck with this one!
