Problem? What makes the lightcurves drop? Instrument Problem? KBO? OR Other? If the events are ture occultation, the objects maybe the any objects between Earth and SCO X-1, can we understand them? Do the shapes of lightcurve drops have any relation?
Future Work ? Work Hard ! Thanks….. ……….. be continued
