Discovered by Yuji Nakamura, Kameyama, Mie, Japan, on four frames (20-s exp. limiting mag. 16.0) using 0.10-m F3.0 refractor + unfiltered cooled CMOS camera. Nothing is visible at this location on the frames taken on 2026 Jul. 16.5743 UT (20-s exp. limiting mag. 16.0) by same instruments. --- Isao Endoh and Mikiya Sato (NAOJ)
