Schema: obs_alterations_redesignations

The observations alterations redesignations table records observations that have been redesignated -- tracklets officially published in MPC circulars that have now been assigned a brand new designation.

Note

  • Usually published in a monthly circular; recorded in redesigs.dat in the meantime.
