Not far from Tau heading towards Puppis at about 7h 23m; -25d 50m
Variable star between mag 6.5 and 9.6 or so (I also have figures of 7.5 to 8.8). Also cataloged as HIP 35793, TYC 6541-2525-1, ASCC 1642287 in case you wish to search SIMBAD. Approximate distance 2000 or so light years.
But then again I could be wrong.
Attached is a zoomed map of the VY area, generated via CNebulaX and another one from CdC.
