Observe: There’s a new nova visible in Cassiopeia right now

Are they sure it isn't an OLD nova?

What does the Latin word "nova" mean, anyway?

Regards,

Nova: Feminine of Novus, meaning new because it thought to be newly formed. According to a quick dictionary query.

It means "new". So "new nova" actually means "new new".
