The applied approximate recording delay (12 ms) was based on the report for similar hardware configuration and the same both USB setting and ROI, and similar exposure, published by Pierre Le Cam on http://www.nocturno.fr/ost/ost.html . UKOCL feed (2021/08/26): Event time: 02:33:26 UT Error in time: 4 s Max duration: 2.6 s Star magnitude: 12.3 m Asteroid magnitude: 13.9 m Combined magnitude: 12.1 m Magnitude drop: 1.6 - 2.1 m Position: In the shadow, 8 km from the central line Probability: 51.8 %
