MASTER-IAC auto-detection system ( Lipunov et al., "MASTER Global Robotic
Net", Advances in Astronomy, 2010, 30L ) discovered OT source at (RA, Dec)
= 19h 50m 04.70s +52d 38m 56.2s on 2017-02-26.26975 UT during inspection
of G275404.
The OT unfiltered magnitude is ~ 19.0m (m_limit=19.5m).
This PSN is in 2.4W,2.6N of disc galaxy PGC2420186
(http://leda.univ-lyon1.fr/ledacat.cgi?PGC2420186 )
This PSN is seen in 3 images. There is no minor planet at this place.
We have reference image without OT on 2016-05-07.15047 UT with unfiltered
magnitude limit 20.1m.
Spectral observations are required.
The discovery and reference images are available at:
