My worst sky is from azimuth 140 to 225 up to ~50 altitude. Straight up is Bortle 4 or SQM 20.5ish. North is better. North of Twain's Landing - https://www.lightpollutionmap.info/#zoom...FFFFFFFFFF
Lately, I've been spotting new finds on the CNEOS page that seem not to have elements at Horizons yet.
Yep. Future update when only needing info on a single or set of close rocks. Each step gets a new element set for calculating the next step/position. And then so on, as only need to really take the gravs of several objects into account. Sort of like Horizons does it. With several of the close pass rocks running in the program at the same time and not any others, my old PC might not have to slow down for the steps. Elements get altered very quickly when a small rock is under the influence of the Moon and the Blue Planet. Just calculate them, already. If the only thing we are interested in is a single 20 meter rock for an hour, we only need to let Horizons make a single set centered at that time. But for more, it can become tedious to input.
