OT MASTER140133.93-110805.8 in PGC094244 galaxy.
MASTER-Kislovodsk auto-detection system discovered OT source at (RA, Dec)
= 14h 01m 33.93s -11d 08m 05.8s on 2019-05-10.82038 UT.
The OT unfiltered magnitude is ~19.0m (limit 19.2m).
The OT is seen in 2 unfiltered images. There is no minor planet at this
place.
We have reference image without OT on 2014-05-26.82247 UT with unfiltered
magnitude limit 19.8m.
There is PGC094244 galaxy near OT. OT offset is 36W
22.6S . The galaxy distance is ~300 Mpc .
Follow up observations are required.
