Description

The skies are not really clear at the moment and the weather forecasts are rarely correct, so it was a shorter session than planned.  

But I was able to capture what I actually wanted to show here: In NGC 4192A there is a current supernova - SN2024exw. (NGC4192A = UGC 7223), discovered 2024/03/24 by Koichi Itagaki.'
​​​​​​​It is a Type II supernova.

SN2024exw was posted on Astrobin before 2024/04/09 by Massimo Marchini as I just discovered.
