Un NEO interesante, porque es bastante grande para poder verlo con telescopios pequeños.
La órbita del NEO 1998 OR2. |
Y durante este paso esta en posicion muy buena para el hemisferio sur.
¿Que es un NEO?
Son los Near Earth Objetcs, u objetos cercanos a la Tierra. Son pequeños asteroides que tienen órbitas similares a la de nuestro planeta, y por lo tanto, pueden aproximarse mucho.
1998 OR2
Este NEO fue descubierto el 24 de julio de 1998, por NEAT.
Pasará este año a "solo" 6,3 millones de km, (distancia totalmente segura!), el 29 de abril de 2020, a las 9:56 TU (6:56 hora legal Argentina). El asteroide tiene entre 1,8 y 4 km. Su velocidad orbital en ese momento será de 37 km/seg, pero con referencia a la Tierra, de 9 km/seg.). Alcanzará la magnitud 10,9.
Momento en que pasa mas cercano, el 29/4/2020. A la derecha, nuestro planeta y la órbita de la Luna. |
La Predicción
Varias cosas. Cuando hay objetos como este, muy cercanos, se presenta el recorrido visto desde el centro de la Tierra, lo que significa que puede estar en realidad (en este caso) hasta 3 minutos de arco de la predicción. (moviéndose paralelamente a la línea de recorrido).
Tal vez lo ideal sea que cargues el NEO en el Stellarium, que te dará el recorrido más cercano a la realidad, desde tu lugar de observación.
En el enlace, puedes ver como cargar este asteroide en el Stellarium.
Hay dos momentos interesantes:
1) En la máxima cercanía, el 29/4, porque se mueve muy rápidamente. Aproximadamente unos 8" por minuto. Es lo suficientemente rápido para que se note, si te quedas un rato mirando.
2) Entre el 5 y 6 de mayo, pasará pegado a la galaxia NGC 4945.... todavía con mag. 11. Ideal para una foto.
Al final tienes la efeméride precisa.

Times AFTER 1962 are in UTC, the current civil or "wall-clock" time-scale. UTC is kept within 0.9 seconds of UT1 using integer leap-seconds for 1972 and later years. Conversion from the internal Barycentric Dynamical Time (TDB) of solar system dynamics to the non-uniform civil UT time-scale requested for output has not been determined for UTC times after the next July or January 1st. Therefore, the last known leap-second is used as a constant over future intervals. Time tags refer to the UT time-scale conversion from TDB on Earth regardless of observer location within the solar system, although clock rates may differ due to the local gravity field and no analog to "UT" may be defined for that location. Any 'b' symbol in the 1st-column denotes a B.C. date. First-column blank (" ") denotes an A.D. date. Calendar dates prior to 1582-Oct-15 are in the Julian calendar system. Later calendar dates are in the Gregorian system. NOTE: "n.a." in output means quantity "not available" at the print-time. R.A._____(ICRF)_____DEC = Astrometric right ascension and declination of the target center with respect to the observing site (coordinate origin) in the reference frame of the planetary ephemeris (ICRF). Compensated for down-leg light-time delay aberration. Units: RA in hours-minutes-seconds of time (HH MM SS.ff) DEC in degrees-minutes-seconds of arc (sDD MN SC.f) APmag = Asteroid's approximate apparent visual magnitude from the standard IAU H-G magnitude relationship: APmag = H + 5*log10(delta) + 5*log10(r) - 2.5*log10((1-G)*phi1 + G*phi2). For solar phase angles > 90 deg, the error could exceed 1 magnitude. For phase angles > 120 degrees, output values are rounded to the nearest integer to indicate error could be large and unknown. Units: MAGNITUDE delta deldot = Range ("delta") and range-rate ("delta-dot") of target center with respect to the observer at the instant light seen by the observer at print-time would have left the target center (print-time minus down-leg light-time); the distance traveled by a light ray emanating from the center of the target and recorded by the observer at print-time. "deldot" is a projection of the velocity vector along this ray, the light-time-corrected line-of-sight from the coordinate center, and indicates relative motion. A positive "deldot" means the target center is moving away from the observer (coordinate center). A negative "deldot" means the target center is moving toward the observer. Units: AU and KM/S Cnst = Constellation ID; the 3-letter abbreviation for the name of the constellation containing the target center's astrometric position, as defined by IAU (1930) boundary delineation.
