Nova in Scorpius: V1710 Sco = N Sco 2021 = ASASSN-21fh = PNV J17091000-3730500
Active Dates: April 12, 2021 – April 14, 2021
Abstract:
A nova in Scorpius, V1710 Sco = N Sco 2021 = ASASSN-21fh, was discovered independently by ASAS-SN and Paul Camilleri on April 12, 2021. It has been identified as a Fe II nova early in outburst. Observations of all types and multiple bands are recommended.
Justification:
Observations are needed as the nova continues to evolve, with a focus on obtaining spectra in the blue and monitoring the nova's brightness.
