Hello. I,m Jorge from Spain.

I have been measuring  Antare´s  brightness last year.

Unfortunely, I think  very few observers are interested in Antares, the nearest Red Supergiant to us.

Because of the lack of stars with the same brightness near it and the low height to the horizon is not easy to measure its brightness, but Saturn will be near to Antares the next two or three years and  I think that it will be a good opportunity.

Sorry for my poor English.

Thank you for reading and clear skies!
