MicroFUN
MICROLENSING FOLLOW- UP NETWORK

MicroFUN is an informal consortium of observers dedicated to photometric monitoring of interesting microlensing events in the Galactic Bulge. Our primary scientific objective is to observe high-magnification microlensing events that give the best potential for detecting extra-solar planets orbiting the lensing star.

These pages below provide coordinates, finders, and observation instructions for microlensing events being observed during the 2008 Bulge season, and archives of data from the 2003 through 2007 seasons.
