[vsnet-alert 15162] Re: OT J221200.2-140000 = Catalina transient

[Brian Skiff]

     I note that there is a very faint star present here
on the UK Schmidt blue survey plate, and that there is a
similarly weak detection from GALEX.

22 12 00.16 -13 59 59.8  (1983.767 UK Schmidt IIIa-J plate)
22 12 00.10 -13 59 59.2  (GALEX)

A blue magnitude of 22.15 is shown by the SuperCOSMOS
catalogue server.  The GALEX nuv mag = 22.1 +/- 0.4.
