Abstract
On Jan 27, 2021, during the third consecutive all-sky survey, the Mikhail Pavlinsky ART-XC telescope on board the SRG observatory discovered a bright X-ray source at RA, Dec = 191.0172deg, -63.3756deg (J2000) with a 90% error radius of 25". The source was detected with the X-ray flux of ~10-11 ergs cm-2 s-1 in the 4-12 keV energy band.
