Re: OGLE-2 microlensing event

  According to the OGLE-2 bulletin
(http://vsnet.astrouw.edu.pl/~ftp/ogle/ogle2/ews/bul-18.html),
the expected date of event maximum is around June 7.33 UT (+/- 2.10),
the amplitude may be as high as 8.1 mag (!!).
The normal magnitude of the lensed object is I = 15.47.

  Observations are highly encouraged, as in 97-BLG-56 last year.

Taichi Kato
