IOTA/IOTA-ES occultation update for (2863) Ben / TYC 275-00888-1 event on 2024 Apr 15, 02:28 UT Visible from Summary ------- On 2024 Apr 15 UT, the 17.955 km diameter asteroid (2863) Ben will occult a 11.5 mag star in the constellation Virgo for observers along a path across . In the case of an occultation, the combined light of the asteroid and the star will drop by 6.71 mag to 18.18 mag (the magnitude of the asteroid) for at most 1.480 seconds. This update is based on, astrometry for the asteroid kindly provided by the IAU Minor Planet Center. This work has made use of data from the European Space Agency (ESA) mission Gaia (http://www.cosmos.esa.int/gaia), processed by the Gaia Data Processing and Analysis Consortium (DPAC, http://www.cosmos.esa.int/web/gaia/dpac/consortium).
