2015年9月12日上午,阮建高查验PSP项目可疑目标时,发现在星系PGC16301中,廖家铭上报的目标非常可疑,后经排查,为真实目标,由徐智坚测量,阮建高上报,报告如下:
Jiaming Liao(Hefei,Anhui,China),Jiangao Ruan(Fangchenggang,guangxi,China) and Xing Gao (Urumqi,Xinjiang,China), report the discovery of a possible supernova (mag approximately 17.6) on one 40-s survey image (limiting mag about 19.0) taken by Xing Gao in Xingming Observation Sky Survey(C42) around Sept.11.87181 UT. using an unfiltered CCD ( + Celestron C14 Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope D=356-mm @f/6.9 ). The new object approximately located at R.A.=04h 54m 44s.10 Decl.=+69°43'07".5(equinox 2000.0). Which is about 67.1" east and 13.8" north of the center of the PGC 16301. Nothing is visible at this position on archival images taken on Aug.20(limiting mag 19.0), or on the DSS(POSS-II N) from Oct.01,1996(limiting mag about 19.7).

这个目标是完全通过PSP系统首颗上报的超新星候选体,
媒体对此进行了报道,导致更多的人了解了PSP计划并参与进来,之后PSP系统经历了注册浪潮的考验,一天注册用户2000多人,至今已经注册用户上万,可喜的事,他们中有很多热爱科学,热情严谨的学生爱好者,这也是PSP项目的初衷,让更多的爱好天文爱好科学的年轻下一代能通过PSP平台参与到天文发现和天文研究中来,相信PSP项目会发展的更好~
