Quote This one is probably a little bit of a stretch for being a canditate of being a detection or not. However, using Tycho Tracker, I could clearly confirm that the asteroid was exactly on the position that it is marked in the picture. This makes it the dimmest asteroid until now I've managed to photograph. Click here for more information about the night of when this image was taken. This asteroid was magnitude 18.5 at time of photography. Quote
