by on with No Comments
The attached image from Stellarium-web.org shows the expected sky at 10:00 p.m. on Saturday night, July 6th, as seen from Chamberlin Observatory. Almost directly overhead is the constellation Coronae Borealis. The symbiotic star T Coronae Borealis is just slightly southeast of that, and it is expected to experience a nova event within the next few days or months.
