Telescope Time Machine 20.07.26: Kuiper Belt (2002MS4) Stellar Occultation
#TTMLIVE 20.07.26
On the evening of June 26, 2020, a ~726km wide object (2002MS4) in the Kuiper Belt occulted a star for about 30 seconds. We watched that star nearly disappear, LIVE through my telescope. The Kuiper Belt is BEYOND the orbit of the planet Neptune! An event like this is RAD, and visible only on a thin path across the earth!
