    Report the Catalina Real-time Transient Survey discovery of an apparent supernova in V-band Catalina Sky Survey (CSS) images: SN 2011 UT R.A. (2000.0) Decl. Mag. 2011ke Apr. 25.4 13 50 57.78 +26 16 42.4 17.6 Nothing is visible at this position on a CSS image from 2011 Mar. 16 UT (limiting mag 19.5). C. Inserra, S. J. Smartt, M. Fraser, D. Young, K.

Ergon, Oscar Klein Centre, Stockholm; G. Leloudas, Dark Cosmology Centre, Copenhagen; and S. Taubenberger, Max-Planck-Institut fuer Astrophysik, Garching, report that they obtained a spectrogram of 2011ke on 2011 May 21 UT with the Telescopio Nazionale Galileo (+ DOLORES). The spectrum shows the clear presence of emission from the host galaxy of [O II], [O III], H-beta, and H-alpha. (The host galaxy is also clearly seen in images obtained via the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey.) A good match is obtained with the spectrum of SN 2010gx (cf. CBET 2413), a super-luminous type-Ic supernova, at a week after maximum light....
