About this image

A frustrating night last night with a lot of drifting cloud but I got around 45 minutes of moderately clear sky. This is an animation of Sloan r' filtered wide-field images showing the asteroid moving south at around 1 degree per hour. By tonight (Sunday) it will be at a declination of -24 deg.
