Twenty Million and Counting!

Approaching An Important Milestone!


Take a look at the Recent Activity section on the website. See the number of observations that are in the AAVSO International Database? Soon - very soon - that number will reach twenty million!

Twenty Million observations!

That's, 20,000,000, or even 2 x 107!

However you choose to write it down, its a big number.

When will we reach it? Care to predict?

There is a cut-off date to this contest. Entries must be received by 0000hrs UTC, Saturday, 15 January, 2011.
