SUPERNOVA 2010hg IN NGC 3001
     L. A. G. Monard, Pretoria, S. Africa, reports his discovery of an
apparent supernova (magnitude 15.0) on several unfiltered CCD images taken
on Sept. 1.143 UT at the Bronberg Observatory.  The new object, which was
confirmed at mag 14.7 via images taken on Sept. 2.138, is located at R.A. =
9h46m13s.7, Decl. = -30d27'13".3 (equinox 2000.0), or 64" west and 58" south
of the core of the nearby type-Sbc galaxy NGC 3001; 2010hg is located in or
near one of the outer spiral arms.  Nothing is seen at this position on
Digitized Sky Survey images (limiting red mag 20.5) or on the previous image
of this galaxy taken at the Bronberg Observatory on Aug. 2.690 (limiting mag
18.0) or on earlier images from there.
