Extract

While monitoring Barnard’s star in Ophiuchus for flare activity in August 1969, we accidentally recorded two bright flares on an early type star, 66 Oph. Apart from Andrews’ unconfirmed observation of a flare on a B8 star and Eggen’s report of a flare on the β Cephei Variable, (BO) HD 199 140, no other record of an early type flare star is known to the authors.
