Hi Guys,
well, fingers crossed that this does turn out to be a new supernova! Only a good spectrum can prove it, so hopefully, that won't be too far away.
Thanks for the generous thoughts above, and your ongoing and stoic support. It's great to work in such a supportive and helpful team like this, particularly when we can provide some value back to the professional work.
I have been imaging galaxies for more than 10 years and taken more than 50,000 images to finally discover one for myself, rather than find a pre-discovered one, or an asteroid, so i hope it's also not the last for another 10 years!!
I have attached a jpg copy of IC4901 and the suspect, and would like to hear if anyone can see it visually too. At mag 14.5, it should be in the range of moderate scopes (say 12" at least) under dark skies.
