JOA 2020, Vol. 10, No. 4, Page 18

Author(s): Oliver Klös

Abstract: On 2020 December 29 the Centaur (54598) Bienor will occult UCAC 672-028789 (13.3 V-mag) for a maximum duration of 9.3 seconds across Europe and North America. Only two single positive chords occultation observations of this Centaur were recorded before. The upcoming event is a great opportunity to measure the shape and the size of Bienor.
