While the light variation suggests a nova, there is a strong IRAS/MSX5C
source close to this location (not registered as a variable star).
Possible identification with this source needs to be closely examined
as soon as possible. If the identification is confirmed, an explosion of
such an IRAS source is quite unexpected.
