He started off as an amateur and is a currently working full-time on a NASA grant to provide asteroid and NEO observations. He built his own 24" and 32" instruments, and he produced more NEO follow-up observations than anyone else last year. Bob's web site is here: http://ari.home.mchsi.com/index.htm Post Extras:       RockandIceHunter member Reged: 11/05/09 Loc: Tucson, Az Re: Links of Interest Redeaux [Re: Mike Lockwood]       #3451915 - 11/16/09 06:33 PM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   We very much need and appreciate the efforts made by other sites including H55 to make follow up observations for us. Any time we spend making follow up obs takes us away from surveying "virgin" sky so follow up obs made by others aids in finding potential impactors. We acknowledge and thank all sites that provide follow up of our discoveries on our home page http://www.lpl.arizona.edu/css Post Extras:       lineman_16735 Tak-o-holic Reged: 12/04/04 Loc: Central PA Re: Links of Interest Redeaux [Re: oldsalt]       #3645893 - 02/24/10 10:17 PM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   Pan-Starrs Post Extras:       WillCarney Pooh-Bah Reged: 10/08/09 Loc: Bloomington, ILL Re: Links of Interest Redeaux [Re: lineman_16735]       #4917156 - 11/15/11 12:18 PM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   I have another to add. NASA-JPL recently opened a watch page. This is the main one. http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/asteroidwatch/index.cfm others from that link include: http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/asteroidwatch/overview.cfm http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/asteroidwatch/facts.cfm http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/asteroidwatch/missions.cfm http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/asteroidwatch/news.cfm http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/asteroidwatch/images.cfm http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/asteroidwatch/video.cfm http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/asteroidwatch/download.cfm Looks like an interesting set of pages.
