This 35-second-long image of the type IIP supernova SN 2012aw in the barred spiral galaxy M95 in Leo was captured remotely on 2012/5/22 using the Bradford Robotic Telescope's 14" f/11 Celestron C14 SCT and FLI MicroLine camera located on Tenerife in the Canary Islands. A Celestron focal reducer yielding an effective focal length of 1877mm at f/5.3 was employed. SN 2012aw lies immediately to the bottom left of M95 and forms a narrow isosceles triangle with the two bright field stars to the upper left.
