Animation of 2006 FA at the discovery date

Hello all,

  I cheerfully annouce the discovery of 2006 FA, the fifth discovery by Lulin Sky Survey. It's discovered on March 19 by Ting-Chang and Quanzhi.

  The sky was not very good that night and the following night, but thanks to Ting-Chang, he kept on observing and so we can add one more to LUSS discoveries.

  Ting-Chang and I also discovered another new object that night, quite unfortunately it turned out to be 2006 DJ192 -- an object only observed for two nights one month ago. So we would not receive anything from it.

Regards,

Quanzhi
