Thanks Greg, for the info...

I wasent aware of this one, surprising too because I watch alot of videos regarding recurring nova lately as astronomers world wide discover more and more of these, some repeating in very rapid fashion.

And by way of a cheap plug, don't forget to watch out for the Weekly Astronomical Events thread for the latest on this nova and many other phenomena!

I was aware of recurrent novae (RNe) but they tend to fall under the interests of variable star observers, which was never my thing personally. I am sure there is some info on the AAVSO site. Anyway, here is a link to a 2010 paper on the subject and it lists the (then) known RNe in the Milky Way. Hope you find this interesting.

I'm going to make it a point to get a decent "before" image of the region so I can do a blink comparator shot when it goes off.
