When I was talking to Stu last night he still had 600 images to blink from the 1300 taken the night before! This SN Is a really good photo opportunity just for the 2 galaxies alone for IIspacers, though long exposures may make it difficult to get the SN separated from the core being so close. Now there is a challenge to you.
Below is a nice image taken some years ago by the legendary Jim Riffle.
So for me it's been 5000 images since my last discovery in January and who knows how many for Greg, Brendan and Pat. Likely to be over 10,000 plus images this year to date! So it really is needle in the haystack stuff that requires heaps of dedication - a big congrats to Stu.
