We measure a preliminary magnitude of r(AB) = 18.9 +/- 0.1 for this source, calibrated against photometry of nearby field stars from the Pan-STARRS catalog. Following the imaging sequence, we obtained a series of spectra with an integration time of 4x600s using grism 4 (covering 320-960 nm), beginning at 02:27:42 UT. The spectrum shows a featureless red continuum, with no clear absorption lines to identify the redshift. Since the continuum is detected at all observed wavelengths we can place a limit on the redshift of z <1.8. DisclaimerNone",
