A short update about the ongoing observing campaign on C/2010 X1 (Elenin).
This comet appears to show yet another change in its afrho lightcurve. After a
decrease, and possibly a "plateau-like" phase experienced in the past weeks, in
our last data the comet seems to show some hints of a slight increase of its
afrho values: http://tinyurl.com/6jhvqeg
This migth well be the initial phase of a new whole change in the lightcurve
(currently the comet is about 1.7 AU from the Sun).
We encourage the fellow observers for its follow-up, in order to check any new
possible trend in the lightcurve. Special thanks to Erik Bryssinck, who provided
the last set of data.
Bye,
