8th preliminary discovery!!! AIASC updates

C. Betrabet & U. Bhatia from Ryan International School, Sohna Rd, Gurgaon (India) made the preliminary discovery of TOV444.  This discovery was linked to the observation RIS0047 in the image set 2011 MV1-0630-24.  This is discovery is of high interest, which means it might be a near-Earth object (NEO).


Remember a preliminary discovery must be observed a second time within 7-10 days.  IASC monitors the second observations, and will notify you immediately of any change in status of your discovery.

The Discoveries & Observations page on the IASC web site at http://iasc.hsutx.edu/index_files/Page786.htm will be updated in the next few hours.  All student observations will be listed.

Image Sets Available

Image sets from June 28 and 30 are available.  There is at least one image set in each of the school folders.  Check your folders.
