after a little fight with the telescope unwilling to observe in broad daylight,
I managed the snap a couple of pictures. Here is an ugly preview, we definitely
need to clean the optics, but the telescope is ... remote.
I have just successfully imaged 2011 W3 during the daytime. Using a C8 stopped down with a 2" opening and hood (to reduce sunlight into the sscope) I was able...
Gidday Terry, your a champion. Excellent news. I also hope you can follow it out as many days as you can. I'll be watching in STEREO, similar exercise to...
Terry, Is it possible to post the image where you dont have to be logged in to view it? Regards, Paul Floyd. ... [Non-text portions of this message have been...

Hello All, As Jan said, robotic telescope FRAM (0.3-m SCT f/10) has successfully observed comet in both R and V filters. Images was obtained between time: 8:57...
... Thanks Jakub & Jan. Very nice images!! The similarity with the January 2007 aspect of comet C/2006 P1 is remarkable, with the dark ''shadow of the...
Hello Ernesto, That processing of C/2006 P1 image is nice, maybe you are interested to play with FRAM data this morning and process it to look for some...
Dear Jakub ... play ... Yes, Thanks!! We'll be happy to work with these FRAM fits. Ciao, Ernesto http://remanzacco.blogspot.com http://twitter.com/comets77 ...
Dears Jakub, Jan and all. ... Ernesto has passed me yours original fits, to play with. Thanks for it! I sorted and stacked the best V-filtered frames, and have...
Excellent! Thank you Giovanni for sharing! Ed Murray ... From: gvnn64@... To: comets-ml Sent: Monday, December 19, 2011 12:02 PM Subject: RE: [comets-ml]...
Hello J.J. (Jan+Jakub), very nice and difficult shoot, my sincere congratulations! Yes Ernesto, it's very similar to P/2006 P1, even if the "scale" of the...
Allow me to correct Jakub a little. The images they used to make the composites have all sorts of different exposure times. But the camera behaves oddly at...
Annoyingly, I did not receive the original message. What a gorgeous photo… 2 questions: what is the scale (i.e. how long a tail does it show? And: from...
Terry et al, Can I assume the orbital elements have remained the same and in spite of the close passage to the Sun? The only reason I am asking is due to the...
Anthony, ... the orbital elements will have changed in any case but we have no new orbit including post-perihelion astrometry. Even the orbit pre-perihelion...
Mate, you’re an absolute bloody legend! First you discover a comet in this fierce world of surveys, then your comet gets so close to the Sun that a good...
Hi Terry , nice shot and congratulations for this amazing Comet ! If it can serve for comparison to determine magnitude, here is a photo of C/2006 P1 made at...
