Magnitudes Graph m1 = 16.2 + 5 log d + 10.0 log r(t - 20) [ ,-20] ( - 2008 Mar. 3) m1 = 8.0 + 5 log d + 100 log r(t - 20) [-20, 60] (2008 Mar. 3 - 2008 May 22) m1 = 16.2 + 5 log d + 10.0 log r(t - 20) [ 60, ] (2008 May 22 - ) * Gray curve is: m1 = 16.2 + 5 log d + 10.0 log r(t - 20)

The orbital elements are published at the MPC Ephemerides and Orbital Elements. The charts are made with StellaNavigator Ver.2.0 for Windows (AstroArts / ASCII). The magnitudes graphs are made with Comet for Windows.
