Occultation event with (2797) Teucer, event index number 1062
Regions able to see the event: Australia
Geocentric closest approach at 2025/06/15 11:03:58 UTC
J2000 position of star is 10:57:54.7 +29:38:36
Equinox of date position of star is 10:59:18.1 +29:30:24
Star is 153 degrees from the moon. Moon is 83% illuminated.
Stellar brightness G=15.3, apparent brightess of occulting body is G=14.2
Use an exposure time of 1.00 seconds with the standard RECON-QHY system.
SNR of 6.9 per integration for unocculted signal
Expected flux drop is 28% with SNR of 1.9 for the occulted depth (per occulted point)
Apparent velocity is 25.7 km/sec on the sky relative to the star, or, 25.5 arcsec/hr.
The recommended exposure time corresponds to 25.7 km per image.
The 1-sigma error in the time of the event is 1.3 seconds.
The 1-sigma cross-track error in the shadow position is 33.7 km.
The sky-plane scale is 3636.0 km/arcsec.
Diameter estimates:
103.8 km assuming a 5% albedo, aximum of 4.0 sec for a central chord
42.4 km assuming a 30% albedo, maximum of 1.6 sec for a central chord
Cross-track diameter of 103.8 km used for deployment plan.
