In this webinar, we began with a brief introduction to the AAVSO and its Section system.
We next featured short talks from three different AAVSO Sections:
- Cataclysmic Variables
- AAVSOnet
- Short Period Pulsators
If recurrent novae make your heart beat fast, you'll find a place among friends in the *Cataclysmic Variables Section,* one of the AAVSO's most popular Sections. Meanwhile, those who prefer learning about cluster variables and High-Amplitude Delta Scutis will very interested in the *Short Period Pulsators Section's* ongoing research projects. And, if you like the sound of collecting unlimited data with 24" remote telescopes, you won't want to miss the presentation by the *AAVSOnet Section.*
After all of the presentations, our talented Section Leaders stayed online for an extended Q&A session, answering many interesting questions from the audience.
