Close Approach of 2023 FH7
#5
That has to be really frustrating! With all the bad weather you've had for months, too. Which orbital elements did you use to calculate the positions?

That's a large error; however the observation arc was only 1 day & the Condition Code or Uncertainty was 7 at the time that I posted the notice here. Is there a way to add an offset to the positions to acquire exposures around the predicted position? That adds a lot of extra work, unfortunately.

I think that your system is sensitive enough to detect a 16.7 magnitude NEO on a 60 sec exposure, if it's tracking it accurately. This is based on past images that you've posted.
