No. 1444 Pannonia.

Alan Cahill J94 has 'rediscovered' the magnitude discrepancy of this object. We must all say. Well done Alan. Confirmation images taken at J93. Measurements accurate to within 2 arc seconds and 1 minute in time of predicted ephemeris at the JPL. There is a big difference in the predicted magnitude: more than 2 > magnitudes. That is a factor of more than 6 in brightness. Mark Kidger Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias.
