M82 Supernova 2014j in stellarium

Hi
If you have the latest copy of Stellarium and would like to view the area of Sn2014j Try this

http://barry.sarcasmogerdes.com/stel...ds/Sn2014j.zip

Make sure you have the "historic supernovae" plugin loaded at startup

and follow the instructions in the text file.

As we all know M82 is not visible at locations bellow about -19 degrees Dec.

I have used a High res Hubble picture suitably processed to mark the precise(?) position of the supernovae in M82 9:55:42.14 RA +69:40:26.0 Dec
