Nova Sgr 2002 (No. 3): prediscovery negative observation on Sep. 8

   We have received the following negative report from Gary Holahan
(holahan@bigplanet.com).

When I read the AstroAlert: Bright nova in Sagittarius, I realized that
I had a photo of the Sgr area taken on September 8, 2002 0300 UT.  I
checked the photo, which shows stars in the area down to mag 11.0, for
the nova 2002 -03.  No sign of the nova at mag 11.0.
