Astrometric and Photometric Follow-up of Faint Near Earth ObjectsDuring the period April 2003 - April 2005, roughly 150 different faint NEO's were observed using the 1.2-m telescope at Mt. Hopkins. Among these were a couple of spacecraft/radar targets, including support observations in support of the Deep Impact mission. While not strictly an NEO target, comet P/Tempel 1 was nonetheless observed as an object of very high importance. During this time and independent contractor, Kyle Smalley, was trained in the use of the telescope and provided some basic software support for the project.
