[vsnet-alert 10254] NOVA OPHIUCHI 2008 No. 2 rebrightening!

   Has anyone confirmed this rebrightening?  We have received
somewhat discrepant reports (was reported much fainter visually
on last night), and the spectra (June 6 and 12) provided from Ayani-san
(Bisei Astronomical Observatory) were indeed typical post-maximum
spectra of an Fe-class nova.

   The discrepancy may have been a result of high reddening
and different filter characteristics (or inadequate comparison stars?).
Could Leonid Elenin present (on the web?) images of these observations?
