Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Discovery images of Kuiper belt object 2002 MS4, taken on 18 June 2002 by the Near-Earth Asteroid Tracking (NEAT) survey at Palomar Observatory, as part of Michael E. Brown's Caltech Wide Area Sky Survey for trans-Neptunian objects. 2002 MS4 is seen moving slowly to the right, located just below the image center. Each of the three images were taken in 150-second exposures at approximately 1.5-hour intervals. The angular distance scale in arcminutes is shown at the bottom left corner and the image orientation is indicated at the bottom right corner; North is up and East is left. |
