HM Sge observations

Hello!

I have been observing HM Sge since March 16 at the remote telescopes of Burke Gaffney Obs and Abbey Ridge Observatory. On March 21, during COS observations, I observed this with BGO (in filters V, B, R), and after the end of the planned time of COS observations, I observed this with ARO (filters V and B). In general, the brightness stays roughly the same all days.

I will wait for the announcement of the final time for the WFC3 observations.

With best regards, Filipp.
