Nova Musca 2026

July 16, 2026

It has been two and a half months since I first wrote about Nova Musca 2026 (V0419 Musca).

The light curve is somewhat more well developed. Visual band data are shown here.

The nine SeeStar S50 observations I made are shown in purple. Tycho Tracker was used for photometry.

Although the downward trend is clear, there’s a fair amount of up and down.
