For many of us, there is much pleasure to be gained from watching a star night after night, seeing its brightness change, and wondering about the reasons for that change. This activity becomes even more rewarding when professional astronomers request the data that we have collected, take it away for analysis, and from the data deduce amazing snippets of information regarding the system that we have monitored. Often, the brightness estimations that we have made on the star, may be the only observations that exist for that particular star at that specific time, making them extremely valuable.
