Description

On April 29, 2016 I took some pictures for a new Leo triplet version. As the weather was not very good, the data was not sufficient to be prepared. I heared about the Supernova in M66 at the end of May 2016 and thought, let's try a shot. Between some clouds I could take one serie of 5 min LRBG on June 4, 2016. This is my first nova so far, with both subs taken by me. As I have only a serie of RBG from April, I took two red subs for comparison in this gif.

ASASSN-16fq is a supernova of type IIP. At the day of discovery it had a magnitude of 16.7.
