Hi all, as already suspected by results from list members this comet seems to have a secondary component that moves independently from the primary. CBET 563...
Dear colleagues, I searched pre-discovery rendezvous of Comet Barnard 2 recovered after 117 year blank since 1889. Just before the recovery, it passed very...
Dear colleagues, I updated the light curves of 73P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 3. http://www.aerith.net/comet/catalog/0073P/2006.html Between late March and early...
During the past three very deep nights, we have been tracking Machholz (C/2004 Q2); I would like to get some feedback from anyone else who might have been...
Hi all, few hours ago, IAUC Nr.8721 reported the discovery of yet another comet by R. H. McNaught. Currently this target is placed in Centaurus, some 37...
Anyone have a good estimate of total seperation of 73P fragments now? I'd like to get an estimate of the "cloud" size radius if possible. And are small...
