SN 2024GY in NGC 4216
I finally processed this set of data that has the supernova in it. It is the bright star that is down toward the bottom to NGC 4216, right on a dist lane. It was taken with the CHI-1-CMOS setup on January 20th, 2024 and is a very low integration set. I would love to have this same FoV with 10 or 20 times the integration to really bring out all those faint background galaxies.
