AT2024bch – A potentially bright supernova in NGC3206

[Robin Leadbeater]

Patrick Wiggins reports a possible supernova AT2024bch in NGC3206
https://www.wis-tns.org/object/2024bch
It is currently reported mag 15.5 but at this distance it could potentially reach mag 12 (if a type Ia with no extinction)
It is well place for northern hemisphere observers

Cheers
Robin
