Dear Colleagues, we managed to get some images of this poorly studied helium dwardf, as suggested by Dr. Kato. The images were grabbed with the 0.8m telescope of Campocatino Astronomical Observatory + AP-8, by Franco Mallia, while data reduction has been done by Gianluca Masi. On Aug 11.118 UT the star was about at mag 17.5 Rc (unfiltered). Please note that this estimate suffers for the galaxy contamination and that better analysis will be performed as soon as possible by means of PSF-photometry. We believe that these observations are important as they show that the star has still not faded.
