Details:
A brand-new Type la supernova designated SN
2026aaiv was discovered in early September 2026 within NGC 7331 (also known as Caldwell 30), the main spiral galaxy of the Deer Lick group. NGC 7331 is a majestic spiral galaxy located roughly 40 to 45 million light-years away in the constellation Pegasus. SN 2026aaiv was detected around September 1, 2026, and has rapidly brightened, making it an exciting target visible in backyard and smart telescopes. SN 2025rbs was a previous Type la supernova that appeared near the core of the same galaxy in July 2025 and has since faded.
