Image Details:

Rare outburst of the recurrent nova U Scorpii (U Sco).

I took photos of the star field near U Sco from my small homeland (Yuzhno-Morskoy, near Nakhodka, Russia), using Canon EOS 60D camera (18-135mm lens).

1st image - September 1, 2019;

I also observed U Sco at remote telescopes: http://ooruri.kusastro.kyoto-u.ac.jp/mailarchive/vsnet-alert/26813
