SN2003gm 20030618.2 <190:C KAI SN2003gm 20030706.2 170:C SCH SN2003gm 20030711.2 170:C KAI # SN 2003gm (13:52:51.72, -1:06:39.2 (J2000.0), offset = 40"W, 13"N) # is hosted by NGC 5334, a nearly face-on barred-spiral (SB(rs)c:) # galaxy. It is a nearby galaxy, and the expected maximum for typical # SN Ia is mag about 13.1 (!). The reported magnitude suggests, # however, that it seems to be dim and not to be in the fast rising # phase. It can be heavily obscured by dust, or a less luminous event # such as SN 1987A.
