[neo_followup] {MPML} C2AKH72 probable Atira (q ~= 0.30 AU, Q ~= 0.91 AU)

[Robert Seaman]

But it’s 95% likely to be a PHA:

…so follow-up would continue to be appreciated!

Find_orb gives its aphelion as 0.910 +/- 0.026 AU, and CNEOS gives it a 56% chance of being an Atira asteroid. Hitting nearly magnitude 21 at an elongation of <60 degrees probably won't be too high of a priority for most surveys due to its sheer difficulty, so I'd recommend followup by anyone able over the next day or two, just to be sure it'll get properly followed up on.
