Comet C/2012 X1 (LINEAR) June 20 and a surprise

It wasn't until I finished processing 2012 X1 when I noticed another streak in the frame. An asteroid? Anyone know which one?

Ed100 at F7.2. Pentax K-x, 89 x 1 minute subs.

I had a look on C2A and it looks like it could be Asteroid 966 Muschi. Good capture, Comet showing up well...

Thanks Andrew. I installed C2A but I don't take to new programs quickly (getting senile in my middle age). Stellarium I can use pretty well now, but it doesn't show up on that.
