Apollo asteroid 2010 AL30 � by Bernhard Haeusler, 2010-01-13 B/W image frozen on stars, in-built asteroid trail
200 sec. exposure,
2010-01-13 UT 01:50 - UT 02:06, 12" SCT
f-5.65 + CCD ST10XME
asteroid:
average mag 15.1, velocity: 1'47"/min in PA 276.57�
The trail of the asteroid is coming from original 84 2 seconds exposures, image processing with CS3
Here are some videos about 11 hours before the asteroids
closest approch to Earth in about 129,016 km distance at January, 13 UT
12:46.

Aperture Photometry performed with MaxIm DL Version 5:
For the measurement of the magnitude of the asteroid, V-mags of reference stars from the Tycho catalog. are used.The different reference stars below are based on five different star areas.
The red line is representing the average magnitude of the
asteroid. The measurments are made about 12 hours before the closest approach to
Earth.
The 401 measurements of the magnitude of 2010 AL30 are based on 401 x 2 sec. images.
The jumpy light curve is remarkable. Indeed I could observe this
dramatically changing of the magnitudes in steps of seconds during the image
processing.
Here you can load the photometric raw data performed by MaxIm DL for your own
usage in a comma separated file:
2010al30_20100113.csv
This is an comparison of 25 measurements, performed with MaxIm
DL, Astrometrica and Focas II.
The V-mag measurement is showing a significant delta to the R-mag measurements
of Astrometrica and Focas II.
Indeed all methods have their own caracteristics.

Comparison between the KAF-3200ME of the ST10XME and the V-filter of the Tycho Catalog. The exposures are made through a Baader IR/UV blocking filter.
