(fwd) HST Initiative, Next Window of Opportunity.

   Forwarded message from M. Schwartz:

Dear SN Searchers,

The first phase of the HST initiative has ended.  SN 2001eh
(thank you Mark Armstrong!) has its UV spectrum taken by the
Hubble Space Telescope.

This was not the ideal choice, but the only choice.  All the 
telescopes involved for highly detailed spectra, both UV and
visual, need a brighter object and one discovered closer to
the allotted HST time.

The next window of opportunity is NEW supernovae discovered
between October 10th and October 15th, with HST observations
scheduled for the 16th.

Again, please consider temporarily changing your candidate
galaxies such that you return to the same galaxies for discovery
of very new supernovae and let's hope for a nice bright Ia!

Good luck, good hunting!
