Re: (cba:news) (cba:chat) CR Boo faint (Joe Patterson) [2017-05-30T16:42:16Z]


16.0 isn't quite DefCon 5, but it's at least DefCon 3. I've only personally seen it once that faint in a few hundred hours of observing, and I only had a spectrograph on the telescope that night. Good (at least) target for all known hemispheres.
And for spectroscopy too, if those people are reading.

Last night CR Boo was around mag 16.0. It isn't quite to the mag 17 level that Joe P. said constituted an alert for this star, but it is fainter than the mag 14-15 that I usually see it at.
It seemed to be brightening slightly toward the end of the night.
