POSSIBLE OUTBURST OF STAR OF UNKOWN NATURE.

Maurice Gavin of Worcester Park,Surrey, reports that an image
that appeared on a negative earlier was absent on May 4th of
this year.    It is not clear if the star has appeared since.
Also, it is not clear if two negatives were taken of the area.
Sorry for rather fragmented information but that is all that
is available at the moment.
The position is as follows:
       RA  18HRS. 52MINS. 15SECS.
       DEC. 32D 47'
  It was said to be south foll. of M57. and the centre of 3 stars,
which are, presumably, in a line.

If any subscribers have any obs. or photos of the area would they
please scrutinize them carefully and report any possible suspects.
And, if the weather clears, any new obs. would help.

Alan Young.
