JPL#119 : 8ad36680-ddb3-11f0-547e-3d41cdcf6782 [db: observed]

Using prediction 8ad36680-ddb3-11f0-547e-3d41cdcf6782 for map and profile fit

Ellipse and circular profile fits to the timings (chords)

Auto-Fit Result: X0,Y0 = -1021.5, 15.6 km Circular diameter = 73 km From 2 chords (VID,CCD) Chords to ignore: Fill: Grid: Show (close) miss chords: 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.
