    Summary 

    In the night of November 13/14, 2002 a faint 11.1 mag star TYC 2852-00588-1 will be occulted by a 46 km asteroid (170) Maria. This update is based on USNO/Flagstaff and TMO astrometry for the asteroid and Tycho-2 position.

    The updated path shows ~7 path width south shift with time correction -1.0 minutes compared to Edwin Goffin's nominal prediction.

    Updated path runs over mid-south Russia ~3:22 UT, N Belarus ~3:22.6 UT, Latvia ~3:23 with Riga in path, S Sweden ~3:23.6 UT with Stockoholm in path, S Norway ~3:24 UT, Iceland ~3:26 UT and after crossing Atlantic Ocean also Canada 3:29 -> 3:32 UT and USA 3:33 -> 3:37 UT. Please check the path chart for details.

    Clear sky and good luck !!!

        !!! IMPORTANT !!!
        Purple stars in identification chart are so called 'non-star' objects in GSC; in dense fields
        the 'non-stars' are often real stars or blends of close pairs. Be careful about this.
