Default Exoplanet HAT-P-22b in UMa

Dear group,

Finally an opportunity this past Monday for some work following a
three-month hiatus due to bad weather. I used the opportunity to pursue the
exoplanet transit for HAT-P-22b in UMa. This discovery was announced about
18 months ago and involves a somewhat massive hot Jupiter.

Humidity was significant and especially during the latter portion of the
session where it became grotesque (my AP RHA was soaked). For the result
from the 4.6-hr session, please see
http://www.perseus.gr/Astro-Photomet...2-20130304.htm .

Same error:
"A variable star, as its name suggests, is a star whose magnitude varies
intrinsically"

Nobody has ever seen this, it says so in wackypedia:

It says so he

The bizarre light curve of V 1493 Aql could not have been observed, the star
exploded twice intrinsically.


Try "A variable star is a star whose magnitude APPEARS to vary as a result
of its orbit, period and distance."
