OCCULTATION BY (565) MARBACHIA - 2005 AUG 05
On 2005 Aug 05 UT, the 28 km diameter asteroid (565) Marbachia will occult a 7.3 mag star in the constellation Equuleus for observers along a path across central Australia, running near Mackay, Queensland and directly over Geraldton, Western Australia.
In the case of an occultation, the combined light of the asteroid and the star will drop by 7.5 mag to 14.8 mag (the magnitude of the asteroid) for at most 2.3 seconds.

The IAA intends to mount a public 'eclipse-watch' in Botanic Gardens (where we observed the Transit of Venus) that morning - if you can go there, and bring a suitable telescope and/or projection system, please let me know asap.
I drove to a nice dark off-road site, about 5 km West of Kilrea, right on the centre line, for the occultation by 565 Marbachia earlier this evening.The forecast was quite good, and so was the twilight sky.
I set up the telescope (127mm Maksutov-Cassegrain), plus the big 30x80 binocs on a tripod just in case, and a big telephoto lens on an SLR with 1600 ISO film.
