JPL#100 (23-01-08) : 476a09d1-f00b-4478-b49a-f35a8cda8c6d [db: observed]

Using prediction 476a09d1-f00b-4478-b49a-f35a8cda8c6d for map and profile fit

Ellipse and circular profile fits to the timings (chords)

Auto-Fit Result:
Size = 220 x 186 km
a',b' = 109.9, 92.8 km
X0,Y0 = 232.2, 87.3 km
Mean diameter = 202 km

From 8 chords (VID,CCD)








You can enter space separated chord numbers (example: 11 4 8) or a method like VIS to ignore all visual timings, or a time source like RAD and NTP (but not GPS).
If the plot disappears, then there are less than 2 chords left (too much ignored, go back with browser).

Check SiMDA for size and mass data.

Check Johnston Archive for satellites.
