Veli-Pekka Hentunen and Markku Nissinen measured 5.2 hours (total of the asteroids 9.93 hours spin) the lightcurve of the asteroid 36 Atalante 16./17.4.2007 at Taurus Hill Observatory. The bright late spring sky made the measurements a bit difficult and there won't be much weeks left in this observing season here in Finland. Veli-Pekka and Markku used 150 sec. exposures and photometric R -filter for each measurement. The comparison stars were GSC1953-0673 (C1) and GSC1953-0867 (C2).
