Caught another Supernova! SN2020fqv in NGC4568

[gorann]

I just realized that I had accidentally caught another supernova in a recent image. This time with the Esprit 150 (with ASI071, 75 x 5 min at gain 200). My image was taken 1 April, so only 1 day after its discovery on 31 March.

More details about it here:

Now I have to check more of my recent galaxy data.

Nicely done.  I was trying for that one last night before it clouded over.

Thanks Andrew!

By the way this is what the galaxy looked like before the supernova (image from PanSTARRS/DR1), and what my image looks like without the pointers.

Nice! I would never have spotted that. Btw, the link in your original post seems broken.

Glad påsk!

What's a suitable social distance for a galaxy  !!!!

Tack Wim!

I changed it to another link that may be more stable. I found this great place to check your recent galaxy shots for supernovae. I now checked all of mine and there were only two😄:
