@kirstiealley Here is the thing. politics has gotten so dirty its not beyond the realm of thought that to harm one man politically theybwould take down a nation and kill millions of people world wide. Humans suck
I just got word that the IAU has named an asteroid after me! :-o There is now asteroid (128345) Danielbamberger. I am honoured! Thanks to my colleague Guy Wells @NBObservatories - who btw also got his fair share with (72834) Guywells. Happy days!
NBO gets its own asteroids!
We are very proud that the IAU has named two asteroids after members of the NBO team: 2001 HQ16 and 2004 GY18 are now known as (72834) Guywells and (128345) Danielbamberger

Due to inclement weather we have only been able to briefly observe the large near-Earth asteroid 1981 Midas, seen here 5 days before close approach.
