SDSS Stripe 82 Moving Object Catalog
------------------------------------
Figure 1.12.

A multicolor scatter plot of the properties of asteroids from the SDSS Moving
Object Catalog (cf. figure 1.8). The left panel shows observational markers
of the chemical properties of the asteroids: two colors a* and i-z. The
right panel shows the orbital parameters: semimajor axis a vs. the sine of
the inclination. The color of points in the right panel reflects their
position in the left panel.  This plot is similar to that used in
figures 3-4 of Parker et al 2008.
