Thanks Phil. I guess I thought that list was generated from within SkyTools. I now understand, correctly, that it is a list from outside.
Yep, that little rock got a spanking as it passed the Earth/Moon system at only 1LD. Small movie of orbit change at https://vimeo.com/manage/videos/677805369

As far as 2022 CO6 being in the 'Current Bright & Interesting MPs' OL, Greg assembles that list at the beginning of each month. Since 2022 CO6 hadn't been discovered yet, it wasn't included in the OL.
One OL that is updated frequently is the 'Current Bright Novae & Supernovae' OL & there's a beauty in there today! The 0.3 magnitude Type IA SN 2022an in NGC 4645B in Centaurus.
