Priority	Normal
Proposal	I would like to request observations of two star formation region with several interesting targets to monitor, in order to contribute to the HOYS citizen science project, as well as submit the data to the AAVSO for use by potential interested in studying YSOs. The requested regions are IC 1396 A (also named Elephant Trunk Nebula) and IC 5146 (also named Cocoon Nebula). I believe that 10 frames of 15 seconds is enough, but I gladly accept suggestions from the team in this regard. Images can be filtered in BVRI, i also gladly accept suggestions from the team, and uploaded to my VPhot profile. Thanks in advance.

Targets
Target	RA (H.HH)	Dec (D.DD)	Magnitude	Telescope	Observation Frequency	Expiration Date	Proprietary Term
IC 1396 A	21.609833	57.51000	18.8–10.0	MPO61	1	Nov. 14, 2024	No
IC 5146	21.891472	47.24611	18.8–10.0	MPO61	1	Nov. 14, 2024	No

(35627) Cledison Marcos da Silva — May 12, 2024, 6:39 p.m.: I mistakenly clicked submit before adding the second target information.
Here they are:
IC 5146
RA: 21:53:29.30 DEC: +47:14:46.0
Magnitude: 18.8–10.0
The frequency of observations can be 3 or 4 times a week, if possible.
Since the goal is long-term monitoring, I would like to leave the expiration date up to the proposal verification team.
Thanks.
