V1935 Centauri, also known asNova Centauri 2025, is a brightnova in the constellationCentaurus discovered by John Seach on 22 September 2025.[1] At the time of its discovery, it had anapparent visual magnitude of 6.2, which is just invisible to thenaked eye.[1]

Fermi detectedgamma-rays prior to the discovery at the September 21.50-21.75 bin.[3]Swift observed the Nova on 2025-09-23.64 and detected a bright source ofhard x-rays at the position of the nova. The early detection might indicate asymbiotic nature of the host binary system. Alternatively the nova may be unusually fast in clearing up its ejecta.[4]
