- 5 hour session, frosty
- main aim was to record passage of near earth asteroid 2005 YO128 (however it was too faint & moving too fast to detect).
- opportunity taken to image variety of galaxies, including 3 with recent supernova.
- three mosaic sets taken (IC 405, IC 417, B34)
- variable star measurements on Delta Cepheid,  Algol

PGC 73329 - Galaxy & Attempt at MPL 2005 YO128

PGC 75310 (catalog mag +17.0), PGC 75320 (catalog mag +17.2),

 Images of area near PGC 73329 were taken in an attempt to record 
passage of a ~ 60 m diameter near earth asteroid 2005 YO128 which 
was passing at ~ 7 lunar distances from earth on 2006-01-03. 

Expected magnitude was +16.9, however, despite and a 
magnitude limit down to +17.6, the asteroid proved too faint 
and too fast moving to record a visible trace along the expected path
