Yesterday night I tried to observe 2005 WF55 close approach. According to CalSky it shoulb be of 4.5 mag. I prepared some charts with Cartes Du Ciel for the...
Hmmm....where are you getting the mag. 4.5? That would be an incredibly bright and notable event; Guide8 shows 2005 WF55 at magnitude 19.9 on December 3 UT. ...
... I'm sorry but it seems you were fooled by the H = 0.0 "bug"... and I guess you mean WL55 or WM55. CalSky has very strange entries which are completely...
... As far as I'm aware, blank H mags are interpreted correctly by the MPES. But the object in question has H = 0.1. How it got that value, I have no idea....
Hi, Just joined this group. I found a moving object of about mag +15 on POSS plates from epoch 1951.853( http://tinyurl.com/7ntrv ). I have no clue at all if...

I've submitted these observations to MPC, but since it's moving so fast, possiby someone west of Arizona can secure a few more observations before it gets...

Roger, This is almost certainly an internal reflection of the bright star Vega which is only about a degree or two from the image centre. The apparent motion...
... You're right. I got confused because I prepared charts for the three of them, WL, WM and WF. Anyway the output from CalSky for Thessaloniki is: (200005)...
