Greetings from the International Astronmical Search Collaboration
First MPC Reports
The first MPC reports from the May 15th image sets are coming in from the schools in India. Jasmeet Kathuria from the Delhi Public School, Sonepat, sent in the first report on the 2010 GU21 near-Earth object target. And, at the time this email was being prepared, Babita Kundalia from the Hillswood Academy sent in the second report on the NEO target 2010 EH20.
This is good work. Keep it up!!
Bad Weather :o(
For the rest of you, I am sorry. The skies remain overcast at the ARI Observatory. When they clear in the coming days, I promise that your school will be getting its own image sets to analyze. During the next 45 days you will have many image sets to look at and possibly make discoveries. Most definitely you will make important NEO observations that are needed by the Minor Planet Center (Harvard) and the NASA Near-Earth Object Program (Jet Propulsion Laboratory).
Keep a watch on your folder. And in the meanwhile...
Happy Hunting!!
