Caption: Figure 7.

Astrometric residuals for all detections of known objects with listed orbital elements. Ephemeris values are found using the JPL HORIZONS service. Left: residuals for all detections reported to the MPC in this work as well as residuals for NEOWISE team detections submitted to the MPC. Axes are clipped to R.A. and decl. residual values between 10−2 and 10″ for clarity. Right: histogram of the residual values for all detections reported to the MPC in this work and for all NEOWISE team detections submitted to the MPC. Residuals below 10−4 are clipped for clarity.
