Excellent chart Phil. Thanks for providing the track.
I may have a shot at this rock during the late days of its passage. It climbs to ~20° at 00:00CDT on the 12th. Problem is, my southern sky has the most light pollution from Conroe and Houston. Just a bit lower 24 hours prior (May 11). Total proper motion is ~20"/sec so fairly noticeable with magnitudes in the dim 13s. The 80% illuminated moon is 50° up and 50° away. I'm seeing the shot at this rock getting more difficult as I scan the specs
