Note: The duration given in the line below is the interval during which the occultation shadow sweeps across the Earth - please see the minute markers on the map to determine the approximate time for your location.
On 2005 Nov 26 UT, the 149 km diameter asteroid (117) Lomia will occult a 10.6 mag star in the constellation Capricornus for observers along a path across south-eastern South Australia, passing directly over Adelaide across north-western New South Wales and then south-east Queensland passing direcly over Bundaberg.
In the case of an occultation, the combined light of the asteroid and the star will drop by 3.1 mag to 13.7 mag (the magnitude of the asteroid) for at most 5.6 seconds.

The images were then observed to be clearly separating by 17hrs 15min.
The star was mv 11.7 and the asteroid 12.7 and magnitude drop of mv1.3 was readily apparent.
The star was only five degrees from the full Moon and limiting magnitude was around that of asteroid (mv12.9) which was therefore never seen.
