22.04.2007 11:42 PM UT Eclipse of star TYC 1407-00130-1 by minor planet (17) Thetis

The video filmed with a Watec 120N shows the eclipse of the star by the minor planet Thetis in real time. The week point source visible during the eclipse shows the minor planet with its 12.5mag whereas the eclipsed star has a V magnitude of 10.2 mag. The flickering visible in the video is a cause of the different image frequency of the two video cameras with which we used for the eclipse. Observing details and results whith graphs and charts can be found here (in German only).
