Please observe the occultation even if you are located OUTSIDE THE PATH (Range of ~14 km on each side), spanning the possible separation of the satellite from the primary.
We recommend you to extend the observation at least 2 minutes before and after the nominal occultation epoch for your site AND don’t hesitate to use a short exposure time if possible as the diameter of the satellite is expected to between 0.4 km and 1.6 km as well as the primary which is expected to be 10.9 km large!
