Summary
| Description |
English: Discovery images of Kuiper belt object 2002 TX300, taken on 15 October 2002 by the Near-Earth Asteroid Tracking (NEAT) survey at Palomar Observatory. 2002 TX300 (located at center) is seen moving very slowly in the rightward direction. Each of the three images were taken in 150-second exposures at approximately 0.5 and 0.9-hour intervals. White stray pixels that sporadically flicker between frames are image defects caused by cosmic rays or hot pixels. North is up and East is left. |
