The MASTER auto-detection system at Tunka (Baykal Lake) detected a new transient source at the position (R.A., Dec) = 15h 22m 06.02s , +30d 20m 42s.7, (J2000) with a typical uncertainty of 0.5" at 2011-05-08 18:39:23.781 (UT). The OT is seen at 4 images. There is no minor planet and any object brighter 21 mag in DSS at this place.

The unfiltered (0.2B+0.8R) magnitude is about 18.3+-0.1 ( exposition 180s, mag limit =20.0). The spectral observations are needed.
