Nova Cas '93 another OBS





The following observation was made by me at 8101 Eastern AV #202, Silver
Spring, Maryland 20910-3121 USA, -77.034 W, N +38.991, north edge of bldg:

Nova Cassiopeiae 1993, 23h 39m, +57.2d (1950.)

UTC                             mv           using 11x80 binoculars
           d  h  m    d
1994 JAN 21 23 42  (21.987)   7.4 +/- .3 by averted vision
Transparency: 4.0 star just visible naked eye         Seeing: good

Sequence:  From AAVSO Alert Notice 179, AAVSO Chart 2339+56 (b) (1993/12/14),
GC 32947 = SAO 035706 = 7.1, SAO 035665 = 7.2, and SAO 035668 = 8.3; and HIC
via Bjoern Granslo, GC 32854 = SAO 035631 = 6.9.

However, I excluded and did not use GC 32947 as it was about .2 magnitude
fainter than SAO 035665!
