On 15 July 2013 the Virtual Telescope’s 17-inches main robotic unit was remotely slewed to confirm a supernova candidate, PSN J10015683+5541440, reported by the Central Bureau for Astronomical Telegrams. It was a difficult target, as...
On 17 June, 2013, the Virtual Telescope main, robotic unit (PlaneWave 17″) imaged this supernova candidate, collecting three, 300-seconds images. The object appeared very well. At that time, the supernova was undesigned, our observations...
On 8.9 June, 2013, the Virtual Telescope main, robotic unit (PlaneWave 17″) imaged this supernova candidate, collecting three, 120-seconds images. The object appeared very well. At that time, the supernova was undesigned, our observations...
On 6 June, 2013, the Virtual Telescope main, robotic unit (PlaneWave 17″) imaged this supernova candidate, collecting three, 120-seconds images. The hosting galaxy (UGC 5315) was about 30 deg above the horizon. The transient...
The Virtual Telescope imaged this optical transient with its 17″ robotic unit, finding it at magnitude 18.9 unfiltered. This transient is showing in the ultraluminuos infrared galaxy NGC 6240, located at about 400 millions...
On May 17, 2013, the Virtual Telescope Project hosted a special online event, sharing in real time images of several supernovae. They are among the most intriguing and spectacular objects in the Universe, with...
Supernova candidate PSN J12454418-1050083 in the galaxy MCG -02-33-4 was discovered by the Catalina Real-Time Transient Survey on May 13. A few hours later, the Virtual Telescope confirmed it, as visible from the image above. At...
Last 21 Apr. 2013 K. Itagaki discovered a new supernova in the famous and wonderful spiral galaxy NGC 7331, in Pegasus. It resulted to be a type II supernova. The Virtual Telescope imaged the...
After two weeks from its last sight, the Virtual Telescope spied again supernova SN 2013am, recently discovered in the bright galaxy Messier 65. The sky was very dark, so the vision was particularly good. Images were...
The Virtual Telescope Project visited this recently discovered supernova in the UGC 4294 galaxy. It was remotely captured by the 17″ robotic unit part of the Virtual Telescope Project. It was found quite bright,...
The Virtual Telescope Project visited this recently discovered supernova in the PGC 170248 galaxy. It was remotely captured by the 17″ robotic unit part of the Virtual Telescope Project. It was found quite bright, shining...
The Virtual Telescope visited for the 4th time supernova SN 2013am, recently discovered in the bright galaxy Messier 65. The Moon was very bright and the sky was hazy, but the star was well visible in...
The Virtual Telescope imaged the supernova candidate PSN J18250198+2731537 in NGC 6632, originally reported on 24 mar. 2013 by Z. Jin and X. Gao, China and still spectroscopically unconfirmed. The hosing galaxy is peculiar as it...
