Asteroid CERES entered C3 at (279,40) [1024x1024 Upper Left 0,0] at 2004/09/06 16:42. CERES is crossing the top of C3, moving slower than the stars. Jim...
The SOHO spacecraft will be replaced by a pair of Sun-orbiting NASA spacecraft called STEREO (Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory). Launch is planned for...
STEREO is not actually planned to be a replacement for SOHO, but instead it is hoped that it will work in conjunction with SOHO, at least to begin with. Of...
If you look at the 2004 C3 transits page on the sungrazer site, you'll see I've linked in a gif showing the estimated tracks of the comets through the fov. Now...
Hi All, In case anyone is interested, C/2004 Q2 (Machholz) is now visible in SWAN images. I was excited at first that I had found a previously unknown comet...

Is ASAS visible in SWAN yet. BTW, what's the bright spot, heading inwards along the equator from the extreme right, at the edge of the dark area? --Tony ... ...
Hi all, Looks to me like K4 is in C3, albeit faint and fuzzy! It entered around 19:18 (I don't have the xy's off-hand -- I'd guess (10,400)-ish), right where...
Hi Karl, and all, ... yes, C/2003 K4 is faint and inconspicuous. The chances for C/2004 R2 are also not very good. The brightnening seems to have settled down...
Dear list, minor planet (4730) has been named after Xing-ming. (4730) Xingmingzhou (=1980 XZ) discovered at the Purple Mountain Obs. in China. Cheers, Maik -- ...
Hi all, C/2004 R2 (ASAS) has entered C3 on 2004 Oct. 05 at 10:21 UT. It looks brighter than C/2003 K4 (LINEAR) and displays a short tail. It will be...
It looks good to me. Congrats, Rainer! The data around that time is real gappy, so I'm am going to hold off for a few days before doing astrometry on the...
Hi all, ... oh well, I was searching the last weeks more thoroughly to find number 50 ;) and now, while I was on business travel... Murphy's Law. Anyway, it...
Au contraire! Granted, maybe SOHO won't find Meyer number #100, but I don't think that we will ever be without at least one space-based solar observatory, and...
Karl, ... now I have to think about how to introduce my wife to this new and regular expenditure... ;) Cheers, Maik -- If they give you ruled paper, write the...
All, Congrats to Heiner! Great find. I can trace it back well to 15:42Z and it stays on the 243 column consistently...which makes me a bit leary...as if it...
Hi all, I am happy to announce the winner of the Meyer-50 competition for the discovery of the 50th comet of the Meyer group. The winne of three bottles of...
Hi all, ... Thanks a lot Greg and all who wrote emails! I just tried to trace back this object. These are my mesurements: 2004.10.16 14:18 243 189 2004.10.16...
Hi all, the comet has become quite faint in the latest images so that my hope of being possible observed from the ground have been destroyed. However, given...
The object I am reporting is not the main comet first reported by Xavier at 12:27:49 (though mistakenly confirmed for Hua Su by Michal Kusiak), but is just to...
Hello all, I am going to make a couple of minor changes (enhancements, of course!) to the comet report form. First, I am going to add an option "Potential...
Hi all, I think this is a very bright Marsden group comet. Nice find! Cheers, Maik -- If they give you ruled paper, write the other way. * Juan Ramon Jimenez ...
