Possible supernova in NGC7331 was created by Keith g
Hi all, the popular galaxy NGC 7331 so often imaged in the constellation Pegasus appears to now show a new supernova at magnitude 16 on detection, but it also appears to be brightening, it may become 11th magnitude.

At this time of year it will be highest in the northeast sky at around 3am, hopefully that won't anybody off?
