My second exoplanet transit in the bag
Well half in the bag at least.
I managed to catch the egress of recently announced HD189733b on Friday using just a modified webcam but missed the ingress window tonight because of cloud cover. http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/..._HD189733b.htm This is the easiest exoplanet for amateurs to date. Nice and deep at 3% , a bright mag 7 parent star and a good matching comparison star nearby. It is easy to find too, near M27.
