Supernova 2004 in NGC 6946 seen at MB

by Andrew Pierce

Last night, October 2, 2004, I saw supernova 2004et, in NGC 6946, in my 14.5 inch Teleport dob at Montebello. I used a chart printed from the Skyhound website. It was a relatively easy observation as several dimmer stars were seen nearby. Its supposed to be mag 12.8 but I suppose it varies from night to night.
