Rob states that 3C 273 is variable. When I last viewed it on the 21st of may the mag was 12.4. Its amazing when you think of the processes that create that variability, huge chunks of gas being ripped from stars and brightening in the massive accreation disc surrounding an object smaller than our solar system.
