Stuart Parker report/s the discovery of a new astronomical transient.
IAU Designation: AT 2016cqk
Coordinates (J2000): RA = 02:38:54.680 (39.727833) DEC = -14:18:16.80 (-14.304667)
Discovery date: 2016-06-04 17:54:37.000 (JD=2457544.2462616)
Potential host galaxy: IC245
Host redshift: 0.015204
Remarks: Stuart Parker, Canterbury, New Zealand, reports the discovery of an apparent supernova (red mag 15.8) on a 30-s unfiltered CCD image (limiting mag 18.5) taken by himself with a 35-cm Celestron (+ ST10 camera) at his Parkdale Observatory in the course of the Backyard Observatory Supernova Search.Which is 1E"and 3N"of the nucleus of the galaxy IC245.
