Discoveries
No new objects yet
Recovering a known body or fitting an unknown candidate is not a discovery. New objects are listed here only after a human review and MPC acceptance.
The bar for a discovery
- Multi-night linkage with a credible orbit and consistent photometry.
- Non-detection test on other covered nights.
- JPL / MPC cross-check, allowing for uncertain catalogue orbits.
- Image inspection of the linked detections.
- MPC acceptance as a new object before a discovery is listed here.
