Supernova 2013aa in NGC 5643

[astroron]

I observed SN 2013aa last night in the very bright galaxy NGC 5643.
It is quite far from the galaxy but as is quite isolated from other stars is quite easily seen.
I used eyepieces from a University Optics 55mm magx 60,also 17mm Nagler 103xmag and 9mm Nagler 200xmag.
Scope used 16" truss Newtonian.
As stated elsewhere this Supernova will be easily seen in scopes from about 6" and above.
Copy the BOSS image from the thread on the discovery started by Peter Marples Here (http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/showthread.php?t=103349).
If you have not managed to observe a Supernova before, now is your chance.

Thanks Ron for the info. I'll have to check it out once there's a break in the clouds.

Thanks Ron.
I'm anxiously awaiting the moon to buzz off and the rain to disappear so I can see this. Wow, I"m just beside myself that If I see this, it'll be the 3rd supernova I've observed in the past 12 months! :eyepop:
Compared to the other two faint ones, this seems a walk in the park. :D

Suzy, it should be visible for quite a while yet ,so as the nights get darker and the rain disappear's, then you will kill it :D
