Hi

Is the campaign still in…

Hi

Is the campaign still in place and were DI Cha and SY Cha already observed by the HST?  Or should we continue to observe these YSO's?

Updates to Alert Notice 770 - scheduled times for TW Hya

The observations of DI Cha, EL Cha, and SY Cha were apparently completed successfully. Thanks for your contributions.

The HST observing schedule for TW Hya is now posted. Times are in UT.

None of these times are good for observers in South America. But please get what you can - at least one set of BVRI observations per night, and we'll piece together what the star is doing. There is no need to observe after the night of April 10.
