Thank you Malcolm, Rolf and Lester. After a good nights sleep I managed to process another image set grabbed earlier in the evening.
From the vantage point of Brisbane, Near-Earth asteroid 2005 YU55 passed within 0.85 lunar distances from the Earth on November 9, 2011. This Near Earth Asteroid was discovered on December 28, 2005 and results from the Arecibo radar show it to be a very dark, nearly spherical object some 400 meters in diameter. The wavy profile of the track is more the result of the gusty winds hitting the imaging rig rather than the body itself tumbling!
I managed to record the passage of this relatively large object as it glided across the moonlit skies of Brisbane on 9th Nov 2011, capturing 42 x 10 sec images between 7:41pm and 7:54pm AEST (UT+10h). My wife was comforted by the fact that I was keeping watch outside, recording 2005 YU55’s silent passage, whilst she slept safely indoors.
Cheers
Dennis
