AT 2016adf = M31N 2016-02a = PNV J00444349+4153401

We hope TNS can support extragalactic novae.

Also known as M31N 2016-02a and PNV J00444349+4153401

Nova in M31, see: http://www.astronomerstelegram.org/?read=8661

This is likely a Nova in M31

Based on location an absolute magnitude (assuming M31 association) this is likely a nova in M31
