Abstract

We present our follow-up observation of the recently discovered supernova in M101. Being only 6.4 Mpc away from the Earth, the object is a Type-Ia supernova discovered this close in decades. We followed up this event with various observing facilities including on-campus telescopes at Seoul National University, the McDonald observatoy's 2.1m telescope, and UKIRT 4-m telescope. The light curves and the preliminary analysis of the multi-wavelength data will be presented, which cover the wavelengths from optical to NIR.
