On April 10, 2018, a spectral observation was performed on the 2- meter telescope of the Shamakhy Astrophysical Observatory (Khidir Mikailov, Ilgar Alakberov, Orkhan Khalilov) on the λλ4000-7000ÅÅ wavelength region of the Supernova 2018aoq (z=0.00332,distance 17 Mpc, mag ~15,8). Preliminary processing of the received spectrum shows that hydrogen lines (Hα, Hβ, Hγ) are mainly observed and the profile is P Cyg. The rays of the absorbent component are around -6000÷ -7000 km/sec.

Let’s note that Supernova located in the NGC4151 galaxy is angle 1'13 " away from the center of the galaxy. The first spectral observation was performed with the 1.5-meter Kanata telescope of Hiroshima University in Japan and it was reported to be the  type II Supernova. The spectrum we get is confirming this result.
