From
Arne A. Henden at USNO/USRA <aah@nofs.navy.mil>
A. Henden (USRA/USNO) reports that there is an asteroid
currently moving through the SAX error box, about two arcmin
south of the center, in an easterly direction.  Short exposures
might confuse the naive observer into thinking a new object
is present.
