Description

The well known galaxy M101 show since a couple of weeks a fresh Super Nova - SN2023 ixf. Interesting for all of us, I think - I used a clear night two days ago and imaged that galaxy with its SN. Maybe it becomes even brighter and larger in the next few weeks - I shall keep an eye on it of course!
The SN can be found in the lower arm at about 7pm.... the bright white star :-)
