Balaji Kumar report/s the discovery of a new astronomical transient.
IAU Designation: AT 2022aud
Discoverer internal name: GEOTS-2022-002
Coordinates (J2000): RA = 08:00:15.750 (120.065625) DEC = +30:45:13.00 (30.753611)
Discovery date: 2022-01-28 04:43:06.000 (JD=2459607.6965972)
Remarks: Potential outburst of AGN at Galactic latitude 27.3496 deg and Galactic longitude 190.4830 deg. Note: GAIA EDR3 reports a star of Gmag 19.7, 1.8 arcsecs NE from the transient location. SDSS classifies the same star as an elliptical galaxy of Gmag 17.4.
