Hi,
I had a chance to see Nova Scorpii 2007 this am right before sunrise  
with my 10x50 binos.  It's a little east and north of epsilon  
Scorpii.  It was about 5 magnitude and next to other 5 mag stars that  
form (to me) the shape of kite.  the nova is at the top of the  
"kite."   I didn't notice any red/orange color as has been reported.

Have any others seen this nova?  I tried to find the other new nova  
just a little bit below epsilon Scorpii but couldn't see it.

Mark
