a supernova in the neighbouring galaxy NGC 7290.  

  The reported position is: R.A. = 22h28m26s.62, Decl. = +17o08'51".2
(2000.0), which is 1".5 east of the center of the spiral (SA(r)bc)
galaxy NGC 7290.  It is very close to the nucleus.

  The magnitude at discovery (Nov. 21.03) was 175C.  The expected
maximum of the normal SN Ia is about mag 14.5.  The follow-up

the backlight of the host galaxy.
