Cataclysmic Variable (CV) candidate of unknown origin. The nearest catalogued source is Gaia DR3 2072291762940024320 (G = 18.46 mag), located 1.8 arcseconds to the northwest of the transient position. Examination of the IRSA light curve indicates variability exceeding 1 magnitude, consistent with a variable stellar source. 2026TNSTR2585....1K N
