Preliminary MBA Discovery
Congratulations!! P. Chawla & A. Aggarwal from Bal Bharati Public School, Ganga Ram Hospital Marg, New Delhi made the preliminary discovery of the Main Belt asteroid TOV44A. This discovery was linked to their observation BBP8100 in the image set 2011 MV1-0701-24.
Several of you have asked about when a preliminary discovery is considered to be lost. Usually, after 7-10 days if the discovery is not observed and measured a second time, it is lost. However, on occasion IASC has received notification of the second observation as long as 90 days after the original preliminary discovery.
IASC maintains accurate records of the student observations and discoveries. If a follow-up is received and the preliminary discovery is moved to provisional status by the MPC, you will be immediately notified.
Image Sets Available
Image sets from June 30, July 1, and July 3 are available in the school folders. The images from June 30 are 5 days old, and will be removed from the school folders in the next few hours. If your students have not yet looked at these images, it is important that they do so...soon!!
Happy Hunting!!
