"So the future looks like this:
2012 EO4 will fade out quickly and by June-July 2012 I will lose it (I am going to measure it again in April to reduce the uncertainties). Due to orbit eccentricity and inclination the next two observing opportunities will be : 2 January 2015 when it will be visible as a dim +21.9 magnitude object in Gemini ..."
We are in 2015 now, and I will attend to recover 2012 EO4, which is currently listed on MPC as first observed by me! It is dimmer now at +22, but it is high up in the northern sky and with the help of Mt. Lemmom 32-inch (0.81-meter) Schulman telescope I will hopefully be able to find it. I have just submitted two jobs on this telescope for the nights of January 18/19 and 19/20 . Fingers crossed...
