The following information is in 80-column MPC format for ease of use for
those who wish to download the information for orbit calculations.
An easier download may be to save the html page source and edit out the
html commands at the top and bottom.
The astrometric entries have been preserved as submitted to the MPC.
Therefore the nomenclature
U99satcandX
indicates that this was an
internal designation before the discovery IAU Circulars were issued.
U99satcand1 == S/1999 U 1, etc.
Note that the CORRECT nomenclature has a space before and after the 'U'!
For reference: S/1999 U 1 = Setebos, U 2 = Stephano, U 3 = Prospero

The first 2 of these U1 points are blended with a star and are astrometrically
poor since they are eyeballed rather than centroided. The third is good.
