Re-Observing 2015 FP118 Another Look Almost Three Years later

When I am looking objects to observer, I try to find something within the capabilities of the telescope, interesting, and 'needing" observation. To these ends I check following lists:

• NEO Confirmation Page(NEOCP) and Possible Comet Confirmation Page (PCCP)
• The Impact Risk Monitoring lists(See Jon Giorgini's "Understanding Risk Pages"  for more inofmation)
• JPL Sentry
• JPL Scout(NEOCP)
• ESA NEODyS CLOMON2 Risk list
• The Radar Support Lists (Arecibo or Goldstone)
• Near-Earth Object Human Space Flight Accessible Targets Study (NHATS)
• ESA's NEO Coordination Centre (NEOCC) Priority List

On 2018-05-28 I saw  that 2015 FP118 was on both the Arecibo and Goldstone lists, needing astrometry,  and it was within the capabilities of iTelescope.net's (T27 TEL 0.70-m f/6.6 reflector + CCD) so I went for it. As I was create a directory so I could downloading the .FITS(Flexible Image Transport System) files I found out that I observed 2015 FP118  for  19.6 min on  2015-06-06.
