Oct. 2, 2000 This 1.8 MB mpeg movie shows 2000 DP107 racing across the sky at 1.8 degrees per day. The images were captured by John Rogers using a 0.30 meter Schmidt-Cassegrain instrument at the Camarillo Observatory, 55 miles north of Los Angeles. Rogers notes that "brightness changes in the DP107 video are probably caused by the video rendering. They are not indicative of the actual brightness changes that are occurring due to its binary nature." |
