Occultation Observation (Status: published)
Occultation Date : 2025-11-21 Star Designation : UCAC4 478-035416 Object Designation : (2606) Odessa Observation Result : O+ Observer(s) : Deborah Smith, Eric Smith Start Observation UT1 : 06:06:47 Disappearance UT2 : 06:07:48.808 +/- 0.116 Reappearance UT3 : 06:07:49.633 +/- 0.116 End Observation UT4 : 06:08:48 Duration [sec] : 0.83 Site Name : Cuevas del Campo Country Code : ES Observation Method : VID Time Source : GPS Instrument/Optics : M150 Record last modified : 2025-11-23 21:00:18 Source / Reference : SODIS (account required) Observer Comments : Reviewer: The 1 drop point before the occultation seems to be real, reviewing the video frame by frame. No other comparison stars dimmed and there are no signal of S/N artifact. The result of the AOTA2b test: 1.62 (1.10/1.50) = probable.The point is present in all the photometry methods used and photometric circle sizes used. Vissually the star dissappear suddenly in a black background. With only one point and no other chords present is very risky to say this is a satellite but it shoud be tagged as suspicious if it is possible.
