JPL#90 : 980d0540-ddb3-11f0-547e-2b1cbd7faf8d [db: observed]

Using prediction 980d0540-ddb3-11f0-547e-2b1cbd7faf8d for map and profile fit

Ellipse and circular profile fits to the timings (chords)

Auto-Fit Result: Size = 158 x 98 km a',b' = 78.8, 49.1 km X0,Y0 = -2433.1, 25.5 km Mean diameter = 124 km From 3 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.
