Popis: This paper is devoted to the discovery of asteroids at the Molėtai Astronomical Observatory (MAO) in 2010- 2012 together with the orbital analysis of two dynamically interesting Near Earth Objects (NEOs) discovered at the MAO, namely 2006 SF77 and 2010 BT3. We used the OrbFit software v.5.0 to compute orbits and to analyze orbital evolution of 2006 SF77 and 2010 BT3. We computed value of the Lyapunov time: 830 years for 2006 SF77 and 1650 year for 2010 BT3.We also searched for possible impacts of 2006 SF77 and 2010 BT3 with the Earth, Venus and Mars in the next 15000 years.
