I was out on my deck at the cabin in North Georgia that borders the national forest. It was very dark and no light pollution. I noticed a very bright light from a star that increased in its brightness at least a million fold and then it was gone and I could no longer see the star any more. It all lasted about ten seconds. It was right next to the big dippers handle just to the south of the two middle stars in the handle. Is there any way to verify this as a supernova? It was about 10:00 PM.
