Emmanuel Conseil report/s the discovery of a new astronomical transient.
IAU Designation: AT 2017gsc
Coordinates (J2000): RA = 00:43:16.100 (10.817083) DEC = +41:20:08.30 (41.335639)
Discovery date: 2017-09-13 20:29:46.000 (JD=2458010.3540046)
Potential host galaxy: M31
Remarks: Emmanuel Conseil reports the discovery of a probable nova in M31, located at 00h43m16.10s +41°20'08.3". The object is visible on 3 images (50s exposures) taken with Slooh space robotic telescope T1, at Mt Teide, Canary Islands. No known object and no know asteroid were found at that location.
