MASTER OT J113218.1-301832.6: long outburst from a nearby dwarf

   This object is a nearby dwarf.  Gaia parallax = 21.6mas.
Long outburst (flare?) is unusual for such a dwarf and
observations are needed.

   This object has a common proper motion object
2MASS 113218.317 -301951.81 (2000.0) 9.641 9.030 8.765, Gaia G=15.23

the WISE, 2MASS" Edelson+, 2012) 

Spectral observations are required.
