Nova Aql 1985
According to IBVS No. 5246, a missed (likely) nova was discovered from
photographs taken in 1985. The object was 9.65pv mag at maximum and 18.6:r
mag at quiescence. Since the outburst amplitude seems to be rather small
for this fast nova (might be a recurrent nova candidate), a further search
for archival plates/images might be meaningful (vsnet-campaign-nova
892). M. Yamamoto reported an additional positive observation of 10.9p
mag from an image taken on August 8, 1985 (vsnet-campaign-nova
930).
