Hi guys!
Observed N3 from Walcha Road this morning, had to travel to beat the fog racing
through Walcha, i had to pick gaps between the fog to make obs. Did my best
under the circumstances.
C/2007 N3 Lulin
2009 February 03.69 UT; m1= 6.1; Dia= 12'; DC= 6; 7x50B [Chris Wyatt, Walcha,
NSW, Australia]
No tail seen, glimpsed the comet naked eye using averted vision, which i tried
before i used the Binoculars on the comet.
There was a faint star at the edge of the coma but i don't think it had an
effect on my naked eye obs as it was below my limiting magnitude of 6.4.
(LM=6.4)
Comp star: TYC 6174-986-1; Method: S; Cat: TJ
Cheers!
