Tony Hoffman and Brian Marsden have published an outstanding article in the August 2005 issue of Sky & Telescope magazine on SOHO comets. A must read for all...
Thanks a lot, Robert and Steve. Just a reminder; if anyone who doesn't subscribe to Sky & Telescope would like to get a copy of the article, I'd be glad to...
Hi everybody, sorry about my message of Aug 04 2005 18:43:16. I copied the wrong time :-( Of course I'm not retracting Steve's claim! Regards, Heiner...
The day of last year,we recieved a piece of sad news which came so suddenly that we couldn¡¯t believe our ears. Now one year has been past, we still miss...
Hi All, By my calculations, SOHO #1000 has been found today! Will await Karl's official word, of course, but today's two C3 Kreutz comets, both found by Toni...
Hi All, It is poignant that SOHO 1000 should be found today -- the one year anniversary of the death of one of the great SOHO comet hunters, Xingming Zhou....
Hi Rob, ... yes, if confirmed, Toni has found no. 1000. Unfortunately 13 days too early for my entry in the no. 1000 contest. I estimated Aug. 18, 2005. ...
... All, ... year ... Hoffman's ... Congratulations, Toni, on your two discoveries and what is presumably SOHO-1000. I'm touched that you dedicated it to...
1. Put the Image # counter and Pause, Faster, and Slower buttons on top of the 1024x1024 C2 and C3 LASCO/EIT Real-Time Movies page exactly the same as they are...
Congrats to Maik Meyer for precovering P/2005 M1 (Christensen) in the NEAT archives. See the latest MPEC: http://cfa-www.harvard.edu/mpec/K05/K05P41.html ...
Hi Rob, and all, ... thanks for this - this is now the fourth periodic comet that will be numbered based on my precovery. 159P, 160P, 163P, and now presumably...
Dear members of sohohunter@yahoogroups.com, The winner of the SOHO 1000th Comet Contest was Andrew Dolgopolov of Dublin, Ireland, who guessed the time of the...
... Karl, Are you going to reveal everyone's guessed time at some point. I think I know on what day I guessed; it would be interesting to see how close people...
... Hi Tony and all, No, we won't be releasing the list of guesses. The main reason is simply that there were just too many! There were 37 guesses for Aug 6th...
Hi All, Has anyone checked Maik's C2 non-group today for possible linkages with past non-group summer comets? I checked C/2002 Q6 and Q9, and it doesn't match...
Rob, I think it's actually Hua Su's discovery, with Tony coming in a close second and Maik a "distant" third. :) Positions of C/2000 Q1 are available here: ...
Hi Karl, ... Ahh, yes, my mistake -- didn't read far enough back in time. ... Thanks -- definitely not a match to C/2000 Q1. ... Wasn't familiar with them, but...
... I find it remarkable (and a testament to our collective skill) that three hunters were able to report the same, fairly inconspicuous non- group comet...
Hi list, since it is not possible to make tentative confirmations or long additional notes on the board I'll do it here. Due to the 'snow' in the images this...
Hi Maik and all, Isn't it typical that an object like this appears during a particle storm?! I've had a look at it and I'm pretty confident it is real. In the...
Thanks-- There's nothing like hunting comets during a snowstorm. 8-) Actually, we were lucky that only one position was obscured. Tony ... storm?! ... 0330 ......
Did anyone find and report Tony's Meyer group comet in C3 yet (if it was visible)? Also, did anyone recover the non-group comet of 20050819 00:54:56/00:55:26...
Hi Steve and all, ... I did not push it too hard but I was not able to find it. However, one has to take into acount that it is in the region of the pylon,...
