I could not figure out how to send a message using the "Comments" section of the form. I wanted to mention that the object I reported today in C2 can also be...
... When I had tried hitting "submit," I got some error message; I guess I'll just e-mail comments to you in the future unless there's something else to it. ...
Hi Tony, ... I think the processing is done separately for the nascom and for the Lindau site. Somehow there seems to be a difference in placing the mask for...
... the ... mask ... I agree, Maik, the Lindau images definitely seem to be processed differently than the Nascom, and for the most part, for the better. Too...
I have now traced the comet in question back to near the edge of the field, to 0953 April 3, when it was at 186, 776. There it can be seen in both the Nascom...
Hi all, I've added a new page to the site -- "News Articles" (the link is near the bottom of the left frame). There's a bunch of links to old and new web...
Rather than take up any more bandwidth on the main form, I thought I'd post this here. The position I posted for 0054 doesn't make sense, timewise. If the...
I should have crunched the math to begin with. Based on the positions I posted, 0131 21,108 0154 35,87 0208 45,75 0230 60,55 between 0131 and 0230 my...
Hi Tony, this is really a hard one, but based on shape and trajectory I agree with you that it is probably really a Meyer group comet. But I guess that it is ...
Dear list members, just to give you a short note: comet C/2004 F4 (Bradfield) will be visible in LASCO C3 images April 16 to April 21 at around mag 1 - 3. ...
... In a word, YES! There's lots of information here: http://sunearth.gsfc.nasa.gov/sunearthday/2004/ Obviously, since the sun is blocked out by the occulter...
Hello list, Encouraged by Peter Birtwhistle, Terry Lovejoy measured and submitted an extra position of the April 13 night. This stabilizes the orbital solution...
Testing... I dont know how long it takes for a post to go up here, or maybe since it's been over a year since I've posted here and I'm not on an approved list,...
Carey, ... Yahoogroups often has problems. I had the same problem this morning with another group. Usually the messages appear with delay (or never). ... I...
... The problem is that you are not aware of either the uncertainity in perihelion nor the complete orbit solution. This makes predictions for an exact hour...
I originally said 3-4PM PDT then after looking at the 2 new Orbits, revised it to 5PM PDT. Looking at the images it looks like it came at 1PM PDT, earlier,...
Hi list, with MPEC 2004-H01 Tony's Meyer group claim was finally confirmed. Taking the much more clearer chandidates without MPECs that are left as firm then...
Hi all, Yes, it was at Tony's suggestion that I sent this to Brian. He confirmed four positions on it (I'd found a suspect 5th position, which Brian denied)....
I'm thrilled that we're up to 48 now--Meyer-50 can't be too far off! By the way, although it's nice to have a comet confirmed sooner rather than later, the...
... I've heard various speculations as to the magnitude of Bradfield in the SOHO images in newsgroups. Does the MPEC include any magnitude information from...
It looks like we aren't getting updated pictures on the C3. The latest image is from 04:54 17 APR. That's the same image from when I went to bed. I remember...
The spot doesn't show in 0254, so it's presumably noise. The comet looks spectacular. By the size of the diffraction spikes, it must be quite bright. The tail...
