V 335, V 336, etc., when the double letter designations are exhausted
within a period of decades nova peak brightness distance determination Nova Herculis 1934 A slow nova which also happens to be an eclipsing binary. It also has a regular flickering period of 71 seconds, the shortest period of regular variations known, except for pulsars and compact X-ray objects. It is probably composed of an M dwarf and a white dwarf with an accretion disk. 2
