Image Details:

I observed bright (brighter than 12 mag) potentially hazardous asteroid (7335) 1989 JA on May 25, 2022, remotely using 0.61-m f/6.5 corrected Dall-Kirkham telescope of Burke-Gaffney Observatory (Canada). It was low above the horizon, but the images were obtained (on my request). This is a stacked image: 30x5 sec. (with Luminance filter) from 01:38 to 01:44 UTC. I made my astrometric measurements and sent them to the Minor Planet Center.
