The American Association of Variable Star Observers and the SuperNova Early Warning System team (SNEWS) are collaborating to monitor bright potential supernova progenitors. The targets are broadly distributed across the sky and all types of observing may be used, so this exciting campaign offers any interested observer the opportunity to contribute.
This webinar looks at the progress to date, and will feature talks from Professor Alec Habig, University of Minnesota, and Dr. Bert Hablo, AAVSO's Staff Astronomer.
