Thanks, that's really cool. And the detectability line is under 0.01 degrees per day, so the parallax from opposite sides of the earth is well within detectable at lunar distance. You also confirm that the detectability (due to motion) is dropping as the time to impact decreases, but this is apparently not a problem. Leave it to projects run by physicists to have exquisite measurement precision ;-)
