Discovered by Yuji Nakamura, Kameyama, Mie, Japan, on four frames (15-s exp. limiting mag 12.0) taken by 135mm F4.0 lens + CCD. Nothing is visible at this location on the frames taken on 2021 Mar. 14.4253 UT (15-s exp. limiting mag 13.0) by same instrument. The object is located very close to a W UMa type eclipsing variable star CzeV3217 (Mag. range 14.870 - 14.960 V, AAVSO VSX).
