    There's a new report on J002E3, that possible Apollo 12 
    Saturn IV-B, on this site:
    
    http://neo.jpl.nasa.gov/
    
    They say evidence is increasing that it may indeed be that 
    object.  A pre-discovery image was found which extended 
    the orbital baseline a lot and may result in finding even
    earlier pre-discovery images.  They've found that it's 
    affected by solar radiation pressure in a way that's not 
    inconsistent with such an object.
    
    One of the observers they mention is Richard Fredrick, who 
    was and maybe still is a SeeSat-L subscriber.
