Summary of asteroidal occultations for 2023
General overview of my observations of asteroid occultations in 2023.

Copybook example of occultation by asteroid Tiburcio, significant brightness drop, sufficient length of the occultation.

Today I have an observation of the occultation by asteroid "1998 CC1".
The occultation of a star by asteroid Ino - 12 September 2023
I did well tonight. Second positive occultation. A clear drop with a bright star. This time it was about the asteroid Ino.
The occultation of a star by asteroid 2000 RF76 - 11 September 2023
This cover is exceptional. It is double. Two drops were caught. Either it is a double body or it is the surface irregularities of one body.
The occultation of a star by asteroid Itzigsohn - 20 August 2023
Tonight was pure and beautiful dark. I managed to capture an asteroidal occultation before dawn. Bright star, big drop. Like from a textbook.
The occultation of a star by asteroid Alexandra - 14 August 2023
My last three attempts at observation were thwarted by clouds at exactly the time of the occultation. This time everything worked. The weather was also favorable. The result is a positive observation of an occultation by asteroid Alexandra. The drop was again very small - only 0.2 mag.
