SUPERNOVA 2010hx IN NGC 3258
     L. A. G. Monard reports his discovery of an apparent supernova in the
nearby elliptical galaxy NGC 3258 on unfiltered CCD images taken at his
Bronberg Observatory, with the discovery observation tabulated below:

 SN       2010 UT          R.A. (2000.0) Decl.      Mag.      Offset
 2010hx   Sept. 16.122   10 28 51.06  -35 36 22.3   15.3    31" W, 2" S

A faint patch is shown near the position of 2010hx in a red image from the
Digitized Sky; this patch is not visible on Monard's own image from 2010 Aug
2.695 UT (limiting mag 18.5), but it is sometimes near the detection limit
on earlier images from there.  Additional magnitudes for 2010hx:  Sept.
17.121, 15.2; 18.129, 15.4.
