SUPERNOVA 2010ho
     Simone Leonini, Siena, Italy, reports the discovery by G. Guerrini and
himself of an apparent supernova (mag about 16.6) on an unfiltered CCD image
(limiting mag about 19.0) taken on 2010 Sept. 4.01 UT during the Montarrenti
Observatory Supernovae Search program using a 0.53-m f/7.8 Ritchey-Chretien
telescope (+ Apogee Alta U47 CCD camera).  The new object, which is present
at mag about 16.7 also in eight unfiltered CCD images (limiting mag about
18.8) taken with the same telescope during Sept. 4.948-4.958, is located at
R.A. = 23h19m10s.24, Decl. = +9d11'54".4 (equinox 2000.0), which is 3" east
and 12" north of the nucleus of the galaxy PGC 1361264.  Nothing is visible
at this position in two images taken on 2009 Oct. 11.941 (limiting mag about
18.8), and 2010ho does not appear on Palomar Sky Survey infrared, red, and
blue plates (1995 Sept. 18, F plate; 1951 Aug. 9, J plate; 1990 July 28, N
plate, limiting mag 19.5).  The discovery image of 2010ho is posted at URL
http://www.jacopobaldi.it/dati/psn%20PGC1361264.jpg, and the confirmation
image at http://www.jacopobaldi.it/dati/confirmation%20psn%20PGC%201361264.jpg.
