Re: inquiry based courses



Does anyone know about Mira Variable Stars. We have been monitoring a star
for the past year. It has changed from a relative magnitude of 13.7 in
January to a 6 last night. This seems like a large change. Could it be a
nova, or is this swing usual for a variable of this type.
