The PTF (ATEL #1964; http://www.astro.caltech.edu/ptf/) reports the discovery of a new supernova, PTF10hny. The supernova was discovered by Oarical, an autonomous software framework of the PTF collaboration, on June 10 UT at RA(J2000) = 15:04:25.29 and DEC(J2000) = +49:24:03.0 at a magnitude of 19.8 in R-band (calibrated with respect to the USNO catalog) in the galaxy MCG +08-27-062 (z=0.027). The supernova was not detected down to mag 21 in previous PTF images taken during 2010 (3-sigma).
