Dip update 5/n
[Orig: May 26, 2017] Hi everyone!
Hi everyone!The latest from LCO's OGG station indicates we are really at the end here. We had 5 days of excitement and collected massive amounts of data - so Ill take that as a win! More updates are inevitable at this point,
Happy Friday!

Dip update 4/n
[Orig: May 23, 2017] Hi everyone!
The data sequence from LCO's OGG station (Hawaii) just finished. This graph shows the data I shared a few hours ago from the LCO TFN station (~0.5 - 0.7 on the bottom axis) and the latest OGG data (~0.9 - 1.0 on the bottom axis). So it really looks like we are at the end here. More in a bit,

Dip update 3/n
[Orig: May 23, 2017] Hi everyone!
As of an hour ago, the latest data shows the star's brightness marching up to normal (normal =1.0 on the graph below). We are all wondering if that is all the dipping we will get. The optimistic answer: last time there was dipping it lasted for three months! The realistic answer: who knows?! This star sure does like surprises after all.
Onward!

Dip update 2/n
[orig. May 22, 2017] Hi everyone!
Just wanted to drop a short note to on the status of the dip.
Since the Red Alert went out, an army of observers have congregated to observe the star at effectively all wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum using various techniques. The response from the community was (and still is) completely overwhelming. I never thought the white board in my office would be this cool looking! (NB: list is not complete) Heres the light curve (cir

WTF Has Gone Into a Dip!
We have detected a dip in progress! Currently the star is approximately 2.5% fainter than it was a few days ago. Currently, we are organizing and cataloging dozens of observations from multiple observers worldwide. Planned responses include photometric observations in multiple bands, spectrometry, and more exotic observations such as polarimetry. We are also continuing the monitoring with the Las Cumbres telescopes at an increased cadence (probably three or four sequences eve
