A friend of mine posted this to an IO group I am a member of:
I have a series of images that show the passage of an asteroid on August 29, 2022 just past midnight near NGC559 in the constellation of Cassiopeia. Anyone have any information on where I can look to identify this asteroid?
I opened up SkyTools 4 Imaging for the date and time mentioned, and in the Chart Control - View option, I had Minor Planets checked. Under Lebels, I had them activated and Minor Planets checked. I did not see any asteroids on the Interactive Atlas.
Am I doing something wrong in trying to see the asteroids that passed NGC 559 on the night of August 29, 2022?
