13) Short visibility window

  - object that cannot be follow for more than 3 weeks			            => -5

Notes: - tclass = is the time when the classification is expected to be performed; tdisc = is the time of the earliest detection; tlim = is the epoch of the latest pre-discovery limit. - for the host galaxy distance use spectroscopic-z when available, otherwise photo-z; the webpage with the classification targets should contain all the information useful for computing the cumulative score (z, interstellar extinction, cross-ref with catalogues and circulars/astronomic telegrams, visibility window, current relative position of the moon, etc...)
