OCCULTATION 2UCAC 28970886

Tim Haymes:

(429) LOTIS is predicted to occult 2UCAC 28970886 on = 2014 20 July at 2338 - 2339UT. The shadow passes over the UK South = Coast, but it is possible an event may be seen further North eg latitude = of Manchester and Leeds area (In the 1 sigma zone for this = event). 

 

There = is a reasonable spread of observers across Europe planning to = observer(OccultWatcher). Here is an opportunity for southern UK based = observers and those spread further afield

Finder = chart of 2 degree field:

http://www.asteroidoccultation.com/2014_07/0720_429_32757_Finder2.g= if

 

Combined magnitude (Star+ Asteroid) = v12.1

Magnitude drop        &nb= sp;        1.4

Maximum = duration   =             &= nbsp;6.8  sec

Constellation        &nb= sp;         Scutum

Altitude:        &nb= sp;      =             = 30deg in the South

 

Accurate GOTO ability would be useful since the star = is in a rich area, 0.25deg Np the open cluster NGC = 6712.

Coordinates and finder fields are on the prediction = link above.
