Hi list, I think that Hua's Kracht comet is one of the fragments visible of September 2002. So, we should to see next one/two for few days... What do you...

Hi all, is it really a Marsden group comet, Hua Su has just reported? I wonder whether it is a non-group comet... Cheers, Maik -- If they give you ruled paper,...
Yes, I agree. It just seems a little too bright, and to be moving a bit too fast, to be either of those. No sign of a tail, unfortunately -- that would seal...
Hi All, I posted this on the "stereohunter" group, but then decided it was relevant to this group too (so apologies to those who receive this twice). MPEC...
Can you guys confirm this please? Am i still seeing Hua's comet here in C2, moving lower and left, below the sun. 17 c2:20080306_1530_c2 808 818 87 99 18...
Hi Alan, Hua Su's non-group comet was easily visible for quite a while in C2 images today -- on both sides of the bright flare/spike coming from the sun in the...

Hi list, it will be interesting to see whether Rainer's C2 claim is really a Meyer group comet as Bo has suggested. While the general direction may fit, this...

Hi Rainer, and all, ... ;) nice compilation. Yes, a deja vu. ... I am eagerly awaiting the results of Karl's and Brian's calculations. Of course a return of...
Hi all, I'll prioritize this one once I have the recent confirmations finished. Unfortunately, on Friday, I had spent about four hours working through the...
Hi Karl, ... this sounds reasonable accounting for the orbital elements, evolution due to perturbation, and the relatively small dispersion in elements. The...
Hi all, You may have noticed recent SOHO comets MPEC. I have checked the Meyer group suspect C/2008 F1. This looks a bit odd, judging from the orbital...

Dear All, MPEC 2008-F38 details seven SOHO comets that were observed in the SECCHI/STEREO HI1-A imager. The orbits have been revised following the addition of...
Hi all, it seems that Eric's observations were indeed of P/1998 X1. The non-gravitational forces are the key: See linked orbit and Brian Marsden's note in ...
Hi All, In case anyone hasn't noticed it already, C/2008 C1 (Chen-Gao) is now easily visible in SWAN images. Look for it on 3/28 around x=467, y=261 heading...

I have measured the positions of the new Kracht group comet from 2008 April 12/13 with Astrometrica and found that this is the return of C/2002 S11. It was not...
Hi guys, I've a question to all. I've download the latest images of SWAN from 1 to 10 may 2008. How I can know the comet visible in the images? For example...
