[vsnet-alert 6468] Nova Sgr 2001 No. 2



NOVA SAGITTARII 2001 No. 2

The USNO-A2.0 star closest to this nova (which will presumably receive
the variable star designation V4739 Sgr):
R.A. 18h24m46.062s  Decl. -30o00'39.64"  (J2000.0)  r= 17.5  b= 19.4
This star is 1.4" north of the nova position.
On the DSS-2 red image a very faint star (mag 20?) is visible 1" SW of
the USNO-A2.0 star. The prenova???
 
Regards,
Patrick 
 
P.S.:
Yes, that's Alfredo's second nova discovery. On 1999 Dec. 1 he found
Nova Aql 1999 No. 2 = V1494 Aql. Congratulations to him!!!
