Hello,

Greetings from the BHTOM Automated Newsletter!

Please note the main server name change from bh-tom2.astrolabs.pl to bh-tom2.astrouw.edu.pl. The alias bhtom.space is still valid.

As of 2026-04-13 11:15:56.089475+00:00, these are the new targets added in the last week for observing (importance>=1), sorted by magnitude:
