Proposal

I'm beginning to learn photometry, so I don't want to observe an entire period of variability. I have no idea if it's best to have one image or a short sequence of images that would then be stacked, but I want the interval between either individual images or groups of images that should be stacked to be about two hours. This should give me a chance to see changes in a short time (one night, not weeks or months), but without also overwhelming me with a lot of data points to process while also learning processing. It might not be enough for my data to provide a light curve, but what data I do develop can be added to that from others. I'll leave the exact number of images to what can be scheduled and what those volunteers with much more experience than I think would still be useful.

This may be a duplicate, but I can't see a proposal submitted, and there are two error messages on the form ("there are problems" and "and maybe more problems"), but I am logged in to the web site. I even get the same error message on a different browser that uses a different engine (one was Chromium, the other Mozilla).
