. As you probably have seen, the star in my original image is not nova. When I looked images from others, I noticed, that the star which i marked for nova in my image, is really a very faint doublestar. After more processing for my original image and compared it with Lick Observatory discovery image the real nova is now excatly in the right place. (Sept 4th, 1998) Marko Moilanen .
