FAI Asteroid Observation Log

This table is a preview catalog of asteroid observations carried out by the Fesenkov Astrophysical Institute (FAI) as part of our ongoing contribution to planetary defense and space situational awareness. The observations are regularly reported to the Minor Planet Center (https://minorplanetcenter.net/).

The dataset includes the following fields:

  • obs_date: Date of observation (format: yyyy-mm-dd).
  • target: Asteroid designation from MPC.
  • bin: CCD binning mode (N×N pixels).
  • filter: Photometric filter used (CL means clear).
  • exptime: Exposure time in seconds.
  • nframes: Number of CCD frames obtained.
  • reference: Link to MPC circular or MPS telegram.
  • page: Page number referencing N42 telescope observations.
  • notes: Additional remarks.

This is an overview table. For more details about our space situational awareness activities, please visit our SSA portal: https://ssa.fai.kz/.
