2010 DJ1 Goldstone Radar Observations Planning
2010 DJ1 was discovered on Feb. 17, 2010 by the Mt. Lemmon Survey. 2010 DJ1 is a very small object, perhaps 15 meters in diameter, and it will be a very strong radar target when it approaches within 1 lunar distance (LD) late on Feb. 21. We will be tracking it at Goldstone for 2 hours, starting shortly after its closest approach.
