Nice one J!

And in about 24 hrs, 16 scopes are hoping to make the first ever accurate profile of this outer main belt rock, and with any luck refine the orbit of its satellite asteroid that has only ever been detected by the HST.

Certainly one of the biggest scientific payloads from the occultation community in a while if the weather and predictions hold good...

(and hardly any need to mention the 88 supernovae discovered by Peters team)
