Re: Possible Nova in Ophiuchus (Tabur) > An updated position based on my images is 17h 19m 14s.2 -27d 22' 34" > (+/- 5") J2000 Vello Tabur's updated position more critically confirms the absence of a bright 2MASS star. The object is certainly not a red variable. Possibly a slow nova, which underwent a major brightening in June? (Other possibilities naturally remain). Regards, Taichi Kato
