  Is that a star at the left side of the picture? Or a nova?

  Hi and welcome @DiNapoli 😃

  That is a foreground star on the left - you can tell by the over saturation and diffraction spikes.

  Don't forget to only classify the object at the center, but it's okay to talk about the entire image here 😃
