YES you can, and now it is easy! 

  • From a specific telescope page, look at the menu on the left hand side. Click on Comet/ NEO
  • Optional - Enter Plan name - Only required for "Create Plan" option 
  • Enter the Target name e.g. Wirtanen - Click Get Ephemeris  - this produces the correct MCP code if the object is found
  • Enter imaging filter and exposure options - see example below


  • Look at Advanced Imaging Options:
    • #Trackon is useful for the telescope to track at NEO speed as opposed to sidereal speed
    • Other options are less relevant for asteroids and NEO's - choose if applicable
  • Finally Click - Acquire Images now / or / Create plan for later (requires plan name at top)
