IM Normae
IM Normae (IM Nor) is a recurrent nova in the constellation Norma, one of only ten known in the Milky Way. It has been observed to erupt in 1920 and 2002, reaching magnitude 8.5 from a baseline of 18.3. It was poorly monitored after the first eruption, so it is possible  that it erupted in between these dates.

The 1920 outburst was discovered by Ida Elizabeth Woods when she examined a Harvard Observatory photographic plate taken by the Bruce telescope in Arequipa, Peru, on July 7th of that year.

At minimum, IM Normae shows brightness variations of about 0.3 magnitudes.  These consist of 0.2 magnitude dips that are interpreted as partial eclipses of the accretion disk, and continuous variations caused by one side of the secondary star being heated by the white dwarf and therefore brighter than the other face.  The orbital period is 2.462 hours.

Photographic plate
Photographic plates preceded film as the primary medium for capturing images in photography. These plates, made of metal or glass and coated with a light-sensitive emulsion, were integral to early photographic processes such as heliography, daguerreotypes, and photogravure. Glass plates, thinner than standard window glass, became widely used in the late 19th century for their clarity and reliability. Although largely replaced by film during the 20th century, plates continued to be used for specialised scientific and medical purposes until the late 20th century.

Contemporary right of asylum is founded on the non-binding Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
