Nova Delphini 2013 – It’s official!

  • by

The possible nova with the catchy designated name of PNVJ20233073+2046041 has now officially been named as Nova Delphini 2013.

It was clear here last night for an hour or so just as the sky was dark enough for me to make out the stars in Delphinus and Sagitta, so I took this shot of the new star with a 50mm lens on a Canon 60D. I’ve annotated the image so that you can where to find the Nova.
