Dear comet fans: I have updated my web site with new *extensive* tables of physical properties of comets. In particular the table with color indexes...
Hi Ignacio , Congratulations for your great work of the comets . Kindest Regards , J.P.Navarro Pina MPC-J70 ... From: iferrinv To: comets-ml@yahoogroups.com ...
These sorts of near misses also happen in the survey business. When I worked for Catalina, the "one that got away" for me was C/2005 A1 (LINEAR). You might...
At long last I had some clear skies - at least for about 15 mins before I got totally clouded out. Anyway, while the seeing wasn't fantastic I got three...
Dear Dr Ferrin, I saw your message, but I don't able to open the document. Yet, I Have a question. What is the data that determine in a scientific way the...
Dear colleagues, Anobody observed P/2006 F1 ( Kowalski ) recently? Now it locates almost at opposition, and it is predicted to be around 17.5 mag. However, no...
Dear Dave, ... Hah!! :) :) :) I'm resisting the temptation to compose lyrics for a song, "The Hale-Bopp Fly" (to the tune of "The Blue-Tail Fly") . . . ...
Dear Maik and all, Well, I think most of you know that the one comet discovery I do have was made accidentally . . . I learned my lesson back when I was in...

Dear all, I noticed that some recent CCD estimates of this comet put it in the faint 15s (about one mag. brighter than predicted) and, as these are often about...
Dear Seiichi, I observed it in April (I haven't here my estimates) and put it around 17 mag. Details I will send later directly to you. Best regards, Maciej ...
Dear David, Well, the estimate wcich you refer made by Jose (J70) have a large scale of residual. I think there's a problem. Or Jose's software taken into...
I've posted an image of this comet at: http://tinyurl.com/22ynmg It is a stack of 9 x 90sec exposures with a 14". Image size is about 3 arc mins on each side....
... Gary, My first comet experience does not go back any further than Comet Hyakutake C/1996 B2 (seen unaided)& Comet Hale-Bopp C/1995 O1 (seen telescopically)...
My first comet was Halley as it was passing the Pleiades in November 1985. I later saw C/1987 P1 (Bradfield), Shoemaker-Levy 9 impact scars on Jupiter (if that...
Dear colleagues, Three sets of tiny Kracht's group SOHO comets seem to be returning recently. * C/2001 Q7 and C/2001 Q8 * C/2001 R8 and C/2001 R9 * C/2002 N2 ...
Dear Toni: The files are not in my computer but in a server. I published them in .doc and in .txt so you should be able to open them. The list of rotational...
Dear Ignacio, I suspect that you sent files to server. But they are incorrect linked as ... <tr style="color: rgb(51, 255, 51);"> <td style="vertical-align:...
Hi. Thanks for sharing your personal comet list. I used to do something similar for my 17.5 inch dob. Normally, I join all visual comet candidates from Alan's...
I got some more astrometry tonite, and derived the following orbit - which is not much different from the orbit of 2 days ago. Orbital elements: C/2007 K5 ...
Dear Seiichi, ... no detections of new Kracht comets until now. The question remains whether these will be seen. They may have become too faint (having lost a...
Dear Maciej Reszelski, ... Thank you. I received from you that the comet was 18.1-18.3 mag on Apr. 14, which seems as bright as expected. Best regards, -- ...
