For Astronomers

WISE Related Minor Planet Electronic Circulars (MPECs):

  1. 2011 BN59, an NEO with a comet-like orbit, a=4 AU, e=0.7. This was found in the last batch of tracklets from NEOWISE.
  2. 2011 BY24, an Earth crosser with a MOID = 0.0171 that probably should be a PHA because the IR estimated magnitude is 1.3 mags brighter than the optical magnitude, indicating a diameter bigger than the PHA threshold but with a low albedo.
  3. 2011 AH37, an Earth crossing PHA with MOID = 0.0348
  4. 2011 AT4, with perihelion distance = 1.42 AU, so it is only nearly an NEO
  5. 2010 YD3, probably a big dark NEO since optical followup failed, 40 WISE observations spanning 6.5 days
  6. 2007 TR65, WISE recovered this Mars, Earth and Venus crosser last seen in Nov 2007
  7. 2010 YC1, a darkish Earth crosser, MOID = 0.1644
