Re: (2173) Maresjev on 19 July

Darn, Maresjev looks to be a good event to try from Cherry Springs... but alas, I'll still be on the road some where along I80. After spending a week or so with my family, it is doubtful that making a detour northwards to camp out overnight in the truck for an occultation will go over well with the hubby. ?? I'll have to pass.? - Roxanne.

This amazing good event is about a week and a half away.? Looks like we've never managed to get any occultation data on this one.? Details:
?
Star Mag:? 9.4
Mag Drop:? 7.2
Max Duration:? 4.3 sec
Alt/Az:? 50 @ 153 deg
Time:? 8:25 UT (4:25 EDT)
?
Path:? Just south of Detroit, just south of Erie (PA), Warren (PA), Cherry Springs State Park, Scranton, Middletown (NY), West Point, and just south of New Haven.

Currently there are 7 stations for this event--Steve M in Minnesota plus 6 of us from OccultNEUS.? As it gets closer, I may move my mobile stations to get a better spread of chords.? Anyone else thinking of trying this one?
