Maik, I confirm that some 704 residuals are way too bad, you can have a look at my calculation at http://www.geocities.com/juan_lacruz/mpec.htm Best regards, ...

Dear list, with additional observations by Clay (H41) the orbit seems to converge. Please note that this result for e and P is still very uncertain! Still the...
The following solution was received by decreasing the residual cut-off. One can see how strongly e and P are affected. Orbital elements: C/2003 O2 (LINEAR) ...
This comet is once again visible. Brightest comet I can image at this time from my sight. Posted 1 image so far from 08/01/2003 just before dawn. Thanks,...
It appears that C/2003 O2 (Linear) is indeed significantly west of the original orbital parameters; the comet is very diffuse, but with a very distinct and ...
Thanks to updated astrometry of last night by Peter Birtwhistle and Clay Sherrod the following two updated orbits were obtained. Still no decision can be made ...
What do you class 'way off'? I have been imaging Southern Comets and have found most around 0.2' to 0.6' off the MPC ephemeris position. I have been...
David, ... I was not talking about pre-fit residuals. Look at the posted solutions. The residuals are from observations within a solution - post-fit residuals....

Hi Mike, ... as you can see from its designation this comet was only observed once -- in 1895, and never thereafter. This means that the comet is in fact lost....
