Possible Nova in Cygnus
(March 16, 2007)

A. Tago reports (CBET 890) the discovery of a possible
nova from CCD exposures taken on March 15.  The position,
from Bisei Spaceguard Center images, is
RA 20:28:12.52  DEC +41:48:36.5  J2000
The brightness is about V=6.7, and the region has
considerable nebulosity.  We will be posting a VSP
finding chart for this object in the next day or so;
until then, estimate the brightness relative to nearby
Tycho stars.  Submit your observations as
