Dear all,
Another previously unknown lensed quasar was discovered, this time by combining data from PanSTARRS and GAIA. The individual components, however, are very faint. The paper mentions (GAIA) g-band and (PanSTARRS) r-band magnitudes of 19 and fainter. Still, you never know :)
The paper (including RA and DEC in degrees and images of the area) can be found here
