Sky & Telescope:

The May 2009 issue of Sky & Telescope Magazine included an article on epsilon Auigae, titled “The Very Long Mystery of Epsilon Aurigae” and was written by a member of the Citizen Sky Team, Dr. Robert Stencel.  This issue also included a sidebar on the (yet to be named when the issue went to press) Citizen Sky Project, titled “A Variable Star for Everyone.” The sidebar was written by Citizen Sky Team member, Aaron Price. Sky & Telescope has kindly placed a copy of the article online for download in PDF format.
