Hello

I pushed it a bit tonight on the pretty-picture email lists.

R Jay GaBany came up with a M27 image in progress (RCOS
20 inch, STL-1000XM unbinned RGB) made on June 5, 6 and
August 11, 2005 that is much deeper and much sharper than
the DSS plates.
He made a nice mouse-over with the discovery image of
Joerg Hanisch that shows that its a new object with an
amplitude of at least 4 mag:

The discovery image of Hans-Goeran Lindberg, who also
anounced the new object, wasn't as deep and with a
shorter FL.

Up to now there are negative detection reports till August 11
and posive ones starting on Aug 16.
There is also some photometry from last night:
V=3D16.17 +/- 0.01,  I=3D16.00 +/- 0.04, CV =3D 16.67and 16.69 mag.


If its not a nova could it be a SN in one of the faint galaxies
around M27 ?

Hello Kato-san

Is it possible that outburst were overlooked by the pretty picture folks =
for decades ?

I decided to push it tonight, when I didn't see any trace of it on the =
DSS 2
infrared and the 2MASS J, H, Ks images.=20
http://www.astrouw.edu.pl/cgi-asas/asas_2mass_html/195951+2242.5
So it couldn't be a very red object that appears much brighter in the =
unfiltered
CCD images of the two discoverers.

Clear skies
  Wolfgang
