[Aavso-photometry] V5558 Sgr (=Nova Sgr 07) continues to brighten

[Shawn Dvorak]

For those of you who haven't been following it, Nova Sgr 07 continues to 
brighten at a slow but steady pace.  It's still increasing at a fairly 
steady pace of 0.026 mag / day.  It's interesting to contrast this 
nova's behavior to the other currently active ones (Nova Cyg 07, Nova 
Oph 07) that have a more typical fast nova peak and decline.

At Nova Sgr's current rate of brightening I predict it will exceed 
Sirius in a mere 395 days!
