Our NEO - Recoveries
2016 UJ101 recovered after three years at FTS
2016 UJ101, an Apollo NEO, was first observed on October 31, 2016 at the Space Surveillance Telescope in Atom Site/USA and last seen on February 27, 2017 at the Cerro Tololo Observatory in La Serena/Chile.
We recovered 2016 UJ101 exact three years later on February 27, 2020 at the 2m Faulkes Telescope South [FTS] in Siding Spring/Australia.
