Hi all,
here you my last data and a description of C/2001 A2
(LINEAR):
-I get the firm impression that the comet this evening was
more evident compared to yesterday: the inner part of the
coma shows a clear condensation, and the total magnitude is
a little brighter.
-the tail was almost 50 arcmin long in PA210 deg, i.e.
longer than the previous days. It is rather broad compared
to before, and its final part is very difficult to be traced
due to its faintness.
Please find some data in the ICQ format.

Kind regards,
