        m1 =  5.3 + 5 log d + 21.0 log r  [    ,-455]  (             - 2008 Feb. 25)
        m1 = 25.5 + 5 log d - 20   log r  [-455,-317]  (2008 Feb. 25 - 2008 July 12)
        m1 =  5.3 + 5 log d + 21.0 log r  [-317,    ]  (2008 July 12 -             )

        * Gray curve is:  m1 = 5.3 + 5 log d + 21.0 log r
