General Description

Imaging  of Asteroid/Comet Elst-Pizarro, a moving target.  A simple point-and-shoot
 program 
for RI imaging. 

Run A should be done before run B.

Finding chart: No finding chart have been submitted because the ephemeris prediction
 is good enough (few arcsec) to secure proper pointing. Verification of star background
 by DSS image on the fly is enough. We attach an recent image of the asteroid appearance.

Special note: Before executing the OB on the moving target please enter in the OB
 
    ==> RADEC of the asteroid at the epoch closest in time to the expected start
 time of the 			OB
    ==> the motion rates in RADEC at the epoch closest in time to the expected
 start time of 			the OB
 
Ephemeris: the attached ephemeris file lists for 15min time tags in UT the RADEC
 of the asteroid, its RADEC motion rates, the airmass, the apparent visual magntiude,
 the position angle of the tail direction (PSANG).

Critical Observing Condition Constraints

```
n/a
```

Time-Critical Aspects

OBs should ideally be executed at time intervals of about 15 days, as
 indicate in the OB time constrain. Please  avoid to execute two OBs too close in
 time (closer than 10 days).
