I was so happy that the kickstarter broke the necessary threshold for action. I donated $10 for telescope time, I can't wait to find out what it's seeing.
Kickstarter Campaign raised $107,421 from 1,762 backers. They will be renting time on The Las Cumbres Observatory global telescope network. Scientists are predicting there to be another 10-20% light curve dip in May 2017, and during that window these telescopes will be watching and collecting data.

Really great news, didn't know there was a kickstarter campaign for this.
