The Nearby Supernova Factory reports the discovery of SNF20060208-004 (RA 09:07:43.11 Dec. +12:03:06.5 J2000.0) in images obtained February 8.3 UT with an approximate magnitude of 18.9 (calibrated to R) using the QUEST II camera on the Palomar Oschin 48-inch telescope as a part of the JPL Near-Earth Asteroid Tracking component of the Palomar Consortium. A spectrum (range 320-1000 nm) of this object obtained February 10.5 UT with the Supernova Integral Field Spectrograph on the University of Hawaii 2.2-meter telescope, shows it to be a Type II supernova at an approximate redshift of z = 0.03, as measured from the peak of its H-alpha emission.
