(119) Althaea occults UCAC4-387-128034 for 6.95 sec

Back to Positives

Another positive detection recorded unattended by OccuRec while I am deep asleep and possibly the last one from E24 that I will observe for a while.
Observed with a 14" LX-200 ACF using F/3.3 focal reducer and WAT-910BD T.A.C.O.S system with x2 fields exposure.



Light curve analysis with AOTA.
