The goal of Southern Gems is to identify 10 variable stars viewable from the Southern Hemisphere that are bright enough to see naked eye. We will be trying to find many types of variables and variables spread across the sky so that some are visible for each season of the year. These stars will be used to create a 10 Star Tutorial for the Southern Hemisphere similar to that of the current 10 Star Tutorial, which is mainly stars visible to the Northern Hemisphere.
Since team's formation in March 2010, the team has been going through lot of stars in the Southern Hemisphere. Currently the team is working on finalizing the list of stars.
The Southern Gems team consist members of Astronomers Without Borders and other variable star observers. You can get to know the team here.
