Three more SOHO comets have appeared in the latest MPEC: http://cfa-www.harvard.edu/mpec/K04/K04A05.html These are SOHO 559-561 (Hönig, Hönig, Leprette). ...
... Right, but as far as can see the C/2002 W# are the other way round: Leprette, Hönig, Hönig Happy new year to all of you. Regards, Sebastian ... ...
Hi Karl and all, There are two comets in C3(August 24-25, 2003),both discovered by mike boschat. I have checked them, both are real,I think. First comet is...
... I agree; I checked the claims and recently e-mailed Karl with precise positions for both objects, asking him to reconsider the status of the one he...
Hmm... obviously a mix-up somewhere. I know there was one I looked at around that time that was barely visble in a few images, and looked a lot like noise....
Here is the list of comets confirmed by SOHO hunters from Dec. 22- Jan. 4, and including Rainer Kracht's find of Dec. 20, which I had inadvertantly left off...
Dear SOHO comet hunters, I would like to announce that today minor planet 68948 was dedicated to fellow SOHO comet hunter Michael Oates (England) by the...

Oh man... I hope this will be corrected asap. (Karl?) C/2002 W18 = C/2002 W12 (J. Sachs) --> C/2002 W18 has to be deleted C/2002 X? is missing (SOHO-564, T....
First, Tony, I don't know why your comet isn't there. I sent 7 out yesterday, and I can assure you that yours was one of them! Regarding the W18 comet, I can't...
Hi all, Brian Marsden realised the duplication last night, so it will be corrected. The fault on this lies entirely with me. Somehow, I managed to replot...
Hi, Karl-- I'm glad that's cleared up--I had a feeling that my being credited for a comet that I didn't find was somehow related to the absence of one I did. ...
I submitted Tony's *correct* comet (564?), and then four others yesterday (soho572-575). The Oates/Leprette comet was definitely one of them. ~~Karl ... ...
Hi Karl, ... these are five. The MPEC contained four. Maybe it comes later or there was a problem with the positions. I also noticed that Tony's comet had way...
... one ... there was a ... way less ... I saved images of SOHO-564, all of the ones in which I could see the comet, and altogether have 17 (8 from C2 and 9...
I submitted 13 positions. There were 2 in C3 I didn't include because I wasn't convinced which position was the comet (I'd prefer to leave off a point than...
