The Asteroid 2015 NK13 on 2015-08-27

 Background
(as of 2015-08-27)
  •  Object: 2015 NK13
  • Approximate Diameter: 190 m - 430 m (623.36 feet to 1410.761 feet) ( Absolute Magnitude:  H= 20.7 )
  •  Orbit Type:  Apollo [ PHA] 
  •  On the Sentry Risk Table:  Yes  NOTE this  is NOT a prediction of an  impact  but rather a statement there is insufficient observational data rule out  an impact -- for infomation read  Understanding Risk Pages by Jon Giorgini
  • On the NEODyS CLOMON2 risk page: Yes
  • First Observed  on: 2015 07 08.542262
  • First Observed  By: Pan-STARRS 1 (MPC Code F51) ,   (The Discovery M.P.E.C.: MPEC 2015-N44 : 2015 NK13)
  •  Last Observed: 2015 08 26.83446
  •  Data-Arc Span: 49
  •  Number Oppositions : 1
  •  Number of Observations Made:  208
  • Next Close-Approach:  Will safely pass Earth on  2015-Sep-15 at  Nominal Distance of  0.100074473278037 AU ( 38.946 (LD)) or 14,970,928.113 miles or (14,970,928.113 KM)

Observing Run of 2015 NK13  on 2015-08-26 from Nerpio Spain
On 2015-08-22  I  ran a series of 45 -- 60 Second Luminance BIN2 Images on itelescope.net's (TEL T7 0.43-m f/6.8 astrograph + CCD) at AstroCamp Observatory. Nerpio, Spain  (MPC Code  I89)  and created 3 stacks of  7  images ( working stars)

Observing Run of 2015 NK13  on 2015-08-22 from Nerpio Spain
On 2015-08-22  I  ran a series of 45 -- 60 Second Luminance BIN2 Images on itelescope.net's  (TEL T18 0.32-m f/8.0 astrograph + CCD)  at AstroCamp Observatory. Nerpio, Spain  (MPC Code  I89)  and created 4 stacks of  10 images ( in one the stacks had star where 2015 NK13 should be and was not use)
