IOTA/IOTA-ES occultation update for (34) Circe / TYC 0745-01060-1 on January 5/6, 2004 visible from Siberia, N Russia, Finland, Sweden and Norway Summary
In the night of January 5/6, 2004 a faint 10.7 mag star TYC 0745-01060-1 will be occulted by a 118 km asteroid (34) Circe. This update is based on USNO/Flagstaff and TMO astrometry for the asteroid and UCAC2 star position.
The updated path shows ~0.5 path width north shift with time 0.5 minutes later compared to Edwin Goffin's nominal prediction.
Updated path runs due to north shift over N Japan ~20:27.5 UT, NE China ~20:28.2 UT, NE Mongolia ~20:29.4 UT, Siberia ~20:30-20:34.0 UT, Russia around 20:35 UT, S Finland ~20:36.7 UT, middle Sweden ~20:37.6 UT and S Norway ~20:38.0 UT. Please check the path chart for details.
Here is current station list for European cities.
Clear sky and good luck !!!
