EWALT USN (Retired)" <fmewalt@prodigy.net> Subject: New SN Observation for SN2000df Finally, a new SN that is not already set down into the tree tops, to = the WEST, or too far EAST in the Providence Light Pollution or Moon = Glare. Attached is last evening's pretty good image of SN2000df. Here = is the tested link, for this image on my homepage: http://pages.prodigy.net/fmewalt/.wi_SN2000df-1W.jpg This was a really hard one to pull out a precise magnitude measurement, = because it lies so close to the glare from CGCG 51-70's nucleus. = Plus/minus .5 is about it, as always, through a clear I/R blocking = filter.
