C313.2 UCAC2.0 Prediction
(as of: 2004 9 18)
The following prediction is the result obtained from the UCAC2.0 astrometric catalog (corrected for proper motion to the Epoch of the event) compared with the unmodified light-time corrected, geocentric JPL Horizon's ephemeris (PLU006, DE-0406, LE-0406).
