RS Oph in 1985. The only extant magnitudes from this outburst are visual measures recorded in the AAVSO database. The small circles are for individual observations, while the large circles are for the 3-day averages typically involving half-a-dozen or so magnitudes. The amateur observations provide a well-defined V-band light curve, while the professionals left no record.
