Nova Cas 2021 is at RA 23 24 47.73 Dec +61 11 14.8 (J2000.0)

March 19th mag estimate around 7.8 from what I can find on other blogs. Very near M52.

Thanks! Way too dim for naked eye observation. Hereabouts it’s been too hazy and we’re just too close to the big city anyway. Would pull out the olde dob or the old binocs if they weren’t in storage.

We might still have time to catch it though, right? Takes a while for a white dwarf to gobble up its neighbor.
