Discoverd by T. Noguchi, Chiba-ken, Japan, on an unfiltered CCD frame using 0.23-m f/6.3 Schmidt Cassegrain, who writes nothing is visible at this location on his past frame taken on 2015 March 25 UT and the discovery image was put at http://park8.wakwak.com/~ngc/images/PSNinNGC2357.jpg.

This transient was observed on 2015 05 02.80422 by G. Masi, remotely using the 17"-f/6.8 robotic unit part of the Virtual Telescope Project facility, at Bellatrix Astronomical Observatory in Ceccano, Italy. 120-seconds exposures, unfiltered, show the source at mag. 15.4 (R mags for the reference stars from UCAC-4). We also performed astrometry, getting the following end figures: 45.71; 40.9 (J2000.0, mean residuals of 0.1" on both axes).

Photometry results were V=15.21 and Ic=15.41 with 0.61-m f/6.5 CDK astrograph + FLI PL09000 CCD camera of iTelescope.NET at Sierra Remote Observatory, Auberry, CA, USA, remotely. Seiichiro Kiyota (Kamagaya, Japan)

This probable supernova in NGC 2357 was detected with 5 x 10 min images using a clear filter Photometry: Mag 15.36 +/- 0.18 C (V for ref; USNOA2) Astrometry: RA 07 17 45.71 Dec +23 20 40.5 These data were collected remotely by Joseph Brimacombe, Coral Towers Observatory, Cairns, Australia.

Mag.=14.8 (R mag for the reference stars from UCAC-4), on six stacked 120-s frames (limit mag.= 16.5) using a 0.30-m f/7.0 Cassegra + SBIG ST-1001E camera (+ I filter) at Osaki Lifelong Learning Center, Japan. Observer Y. Suzuki, T. Yusa, N. Wada, S. Tsunoda and K. Chiba.

V = 14.3, R =14.3 (reference stars from UCAC-4), on each three stacked 120-s frames using 0.30-m f/7.0 Cassegrain + SBIG STL-1001E camera at Osaki Lifelong Learning Center, Japan. Observer T. Yusa, Y. Suzuki, N. Wada, S. Tsunoda, S. Sasaki and H. Goto. VRI color composite image was posted at URL http://space.geocities.jp/yusastar77/supernova/PSNinN2357_150509.htm
