Announcing: Caral-Supe!
[Orig: April 5, 2018]
Hi everyone,
"Caral-Supe" is now the name for the first dip in March 2018!! It is now labeled on the latest light curve (see below).
More on "Caral-Supe": Sticking with the archaeological theme, the ancient city Caral-Supe is one of the earliest sites in the Americas - well over 4000 years old. Also notable is the large number of musical instruments found at the site, and almost no evidence of warfare or human sacrifice.
The name of the 2nd dip will be announced early next week, so stay tuned!
Best,
~Tabby and team
PS: These observations are happening because of the wonderful backers of our 2016 Kickstarter project. The Kickstarter campaign has ended, but we are still accepting donations to purchase additional observing time on the LCO 0.4m network. Thanks in advance for your support!
