Interactive table of observable NEOs
Asteroid and observatory-specific ephemeris generator.
Build finder chart for a given asteroid and time.
Return orbital and physical properties for a given asteroid.
Observability chart for asteroids and observatory.

Pre-defined lists of asteroids observable tonight.
Access to, and information about, the astorb orbital elements database.
Compute fluorescence efficiencies and/or Haser fractions.
Lowell Observatory offers these tools to assist with asteroid observation planning and to facilitate data mining across multiple surveys. Orbital solutions are calculated in-house based on Minor Planet Center observations.
This website is in the process of being upgraded and as such is in beta status; some tools may experience bugs. If a bug is particularly important, please direct concerns to asteroid@lowell.edu.
