[Orig: Aug 31, 2017] Hi everyone, Data from last night shows that the flux is still down, though only by a smidgen. Wheeee! ~Tabby and team

Dip update 70/n
[Orig: Aug 30, 2017] Hi everyone, Two nights ago no data taken on the LCO network because of bad weather at both TFN and OGG. Last night bad weather persisted at TFN, so this update shows only the newest OGG measurement. This latest point possibly indicates the start of a new dip - we eagerly await a confirmation! ~Tabby and team

Dip update 69/n
[Orig: Aug 28, 2017] Hi everyone, Below is the light curve as of ~1 hour ago. Humidity was too high to open domes last night at OGG, so only TFN to report. Also, two papers on our star were posted to the archive this morning, both presenting new analysis of the long term dimming/variability with coverage over the past couple couple years -> decade. Links to the paper are here: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1708.07556.pdf and here https://arxiv.org/pdf/1708.07822.pdf Note that the f

[Orig: Aug 27, 2017] Hi everyone, Below is the light curve as of ~1 hour ago. TFN images look like they had moisture on the detector, so only OGG to report. For those who are curious, Ive attached one of the affected TFN images from last night. Our star is marked with the red target. You can see fuzziness around the top and bottom of the image, particularly on the right hand side. Our target *looks* like it is out of the messy area, but there can be affects on the measure

Dip update 67/n
[Orig: Aug 26, 2017] Hi everyone, Below is the light curve as of ~12 hours ago. This graph does not show data taken last night at OGG because LCO data transferring/processing has been sluggish over the past 48 hours (also the reason there was no update yesterday). Have a great weekend! ~Tabby

Dip update 66/n
[Orig: Aug 24, 2017] Hi everyone, Below is the current light curve. Notes on data taken over the past week that I previously mentioned needed "review" when I was back from eclipse travels: OGG: I have removed the nightly average from 19 Aug, since it was only based on 4 data points. TFN: removed a couple images that had a plane crossing over a few of the comparison stars. More later, ~Tabby

Dip update 65/n
[Orig: Aug 23, 2017] Hi everyone, Just a quick note on what our favorite star is doing. After more than two weeks, Skara Brae appears to be over. Below is the current light curve. Note that the data from 3 days ago still need to be scrubbed (there were passing clouds), and we lost a few recent nights at OGG due to bad weather. ~Tabby

[Orig: Aug 21, 2017] Hi everyone, Last night there was poor weather at OGG, so only TFN to report. Happy eclipse day! ~Tabby

Dip update 63/n
[Orig: Aug 20, 2017] Hi everyone, Data from last night at the two LCO locations are a bit scattered compared to eachother. Unfortunately, I dont have the time right now to look into why this would be (i.e., is it real or some image artifact), so consider them preliminary for now. ~Tabby
