Welcome to the milestone 400th edition of the light curve of the week feature! This kind of snuck up on me without warning 🙂 I wonder if anyone has read all of them 😉
The above light curve of the variable star V908Per in the IC348 cluster, is probably as close to the average YSO light curve we have shown as you can get. Variations within a half magnitude range at ever changing timescales and larger amplitudes at shorter wavelength. It resembles the ‘Orion Variable’ classification very well, which many of our YSOs seem to have been given.
