I now know where to turn to in the event I accidently come across something while doing my pretty picture work!

All I can say is well done on the conformation. And to my ex best friend Mr Grennan for his wise ass jokes :>)). I'm really looking forward to getting stuck in to all these NEO's & asteroids.

Hi all,

So get this guys, there's a mag 16 NEO whizzing by. Carl has just gotten a shiny new observatory code. So what does he do? Go out and take some confirmation data?? Uh-uh, not our boy, he falls asleep, yes you read it right, falls asleep, probably with a comfort blanket and his thumb in his mouth if the truth be known.
There'll be a courier arriving in Balbriggan tomorrow to collect your observatory code and send it back to the Minor Planet Center. Have it packed and ready to go slacker!
Regards and Clear Skies,
Dave.

Though think of the re-sale advert: One careful owner, low mileage.

I now know whom I canNOT count on for future confirmations .... Carl and his beauty sleep while the universe is at work.
