MASTER OT J021447.67+481852.6 - SuperNova in 2MASS galaxy

MASTER-Tunka auto-detection system discovered possible SuperNova at (RA, Dec) = 02h 14m 47.67s +48d 18m 52.6s at 2015-01-07.77542 UT. The OT unfiltered magnitude is 16.9m (limit is 18.3m).

There are 7 images of possible SN. There is no minor planet at this place.

We have reference image without SN at 2011-12-16.620 UT with unfiltered magnitude limit 19.8m.

There is 2MASX J02144716+4818389 galaxy (PGC 2314759) with 8.6 arcesec offset.

Follow up observations are required.
