This is VERY dim, and dimmer than the dimmest star you can see in the darkest sky by as much as the difference between that dimmest start and a very bright star.
You need a Large telescope and exceptional star charts to see this.

Real-time astronomy makes me goofy - too many little twinkling lights up there. I can find the Big Dipper - if I grabbed my Bushnells, where would the supernova be in relation to it?
"But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away, for his name is Obama."

It must be bad news to anyone who lives on planets nearby.

I wish we’d get one bright enough to see during the day in my lifetime.

Leo is just southeast of the big dipper (below the saucepan). If you see a bright star under the dipper, that is probably Regulus, the brightest star in Leo.

Every time a supernova occurs, another civilization was destroyed by the Cassadian Empire.
It's a StarBuster Bomb.

I believe that Kevin Davis is a major pinger of the space stuff. I think he’ll set you up if you ask him really nicely.... (BG)

If I remember right, following the Pointers in the opposite direction from the North Star will take you to Regulus, the bright star in Leo. (Hope others will correct me if I’m wrong here.)

Leo, the great lion. “The conquering lion of Judah”, Jesus Christ, who will come again. The king that the apostle John traced back to that tribe of Israel. In his heart is the star called Regulus.
This is the whole story of God’s atonement work on earth, its beginning and ending are symbolized by the sphinx - combining Virgo and Leo.

” if I grabbed my Bushnells, where would the supernova be in relation to it? “
Dear Sir,
I would remind you that this is a CONSERVATIVE site, and as such, espouses family values and all. I would respectfully request that you keep your smutty anatomical references confined to the beer halls and billiard parlors which you no doubt frequent!
To: Viking2002
if I grabbed my Bushnells, where would the supernova be in relation to it?The supernova will be above your Bushnells.
(But you won't see a magnitude 12.9 object in them.)
