Newly discovered object 2014 UN271 observed as active at 20.18 au
Abstract
We report photometric observations with Las Cumbres Observatory 1-m Sutherland-LCOGT C telescope. The observations from 2021 June 22.174 (UTC) indicate that the newly discovered 2014 UN271 has cometary activity at heliocentric distance of 20.18 au. The observations were done with a PanSTARRS w-band filter (equivalent to SDSS g'+r'+i') and were calibrated against Gaia G-band field stars.
