    Occultations of bright stars by minor planets

    I have created a list of asteroidal occultations of bright stars in this century

    What is the main use for it? I assume there is no asteroid atmosphere to learn about. Does one get some improved orbital data? What., if anything, can you back out of the duration of the occult?

    I.e. that must have been considerable work - why the hell did you do it?
