Reports without links are Incomplete - awaiting further observations.

Please Note: All Profiles provided here are preliminary.

Asteroid profiles only show the line of sight view at the time of the occultation.

The true size/shape of an asteroid in 3-dimensions cannot be determined from a single occultation.

Dave Herald should be contacted for "official" profile information.

Determining the Profile of an asteroid from a limited number of observations can lead to misrepresentations.

The following table lists events provided by David Dunham that occurred earlier in 2006.

These events were gathered and analyzed by Jarret Dixon (01-05-2006 through 05-07-2006)

and Daniel Schwartz (04-28-2006 through 07-25-2006).

Their contribution is gratefully acknowledged here.
