Cosmic explosion will be visible to the naked eye in once-in-a-lifetime stargazing event

A rare cosmic eruption known as a nova is expected in the coming months. It will be so bright that a "new" star will seem to appear in the night sky temporarily.

Should be interesting, how to catch it.

I've got a telescope, just need a compass to make sure I'm looking the right direction.

Blah, I can guarantee that it will be cloudy the whole time over the course of the event in my AO. We seem to always be stargazing challenged.

Wikipedia has a star chart ... just 10º North is a fabulous galaxy cluster ... open clusters abound just West in Hercules ...

Buy a microscope ... or rig up some old TV dishes into a radio telescope ... forestry as a hobby can be rewarding ... just some ideas ... nova explosions 3,000 years ago ain't all that interesting ... <fringe> speed of light was faster then, so what, just makes lesser minds think the universe is expanding or some silly shit </fringe> ...
