it to confirm you have selected the correct target and that the object’s magnitude seems appropriate. When you are satisfied that the correct object has been selected, click Add selected point to store the point for reporting. Up to five points can be stored for reporting. After at least two points have been selected, clicking the Check Plots tab will display plots of RA,Dec, and Magnitude vs time, as well as the computed velocity and position angle. This information can be used to help determine whether a suspected detection is real.
