Dear Jure, please, can you insert an arrow, or similar mark, over one of the pictures you mentioned, so it will be clear about which feature we are talking...
I'm interested in this object, too. Now it is 1.31 AU from the sun and 2.08 AU from Earth. If it is 'normal' comet and the total brightness is under 13 mag, it...
Hi Jure, I know what feature you mean, I have been interested in it to for a while, was surprised no one commented on it earlier! Looks like traditional? type...
Hi everyone, I'd like to thank those of you who wrote me privately, expressing your support and willingness to assist in this effort of mine. I wouldn't mind ...
Dear colleagues, I updated the light curve of Comet McNaught: http://www.aerith.net/comet/catalog/2006P1/2006P1.html Its fading after the perihelion passage...
Dear colleagues, I summarized the light curve of P/2007 B3 = 1977 O1 (Garradd). http://www.aerith.net/comet/catalog/0186P/index.html # I have already used a...
Dear Werner Hasubick, Thank you for your informative not-seen observations. ... Here is the light curve: http://www.aerith.net/comet/catalog/0182P/2007.html ...
The Bellatrix Astronomical Observatory announces the organization of the "2nd Virtual Meeting on Modern Astronomy" (ViMMA) to celebrate the first 10 years of...
Clear DayHi all, if anyone wants to look, the Royal Astronomical Society of New Zealand Astrophotography Section had a Comet McNaught image competition (we...
John and other Comet Photographers- I write up, for my own personal use (it goes into my personal observing notebook for comets) information and observations...
I just viewed the "Comet Odyssey" video that was made by Peter Ceravolo and was wondering if anyone knows of a similar effort involving Comet McNaught? I know...
Hi Brian, good idea. I'd love to see a copy! It should be fine to use the images - but please don't use Euan Mason's (he came 2nd). I think it's been sold to...
Hi everyone, I am posting this message on behalf of Brett Gladman. This is the message he sent to MPC and CBAT last night regarding an observation of 99/P. Has...
You can see the image at: http://www.astro.uwo.ca/~moldowan/99PKowal2.gif Alyssa -- ... "Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, But by the...
... Hello Alyssa, thanks for your e-mail. The last observation listed on the MPC "Dates Of Last Observation Of Comets" (2007, Feb. 27) was actually made from...
Dear Alyssa and all, we just finished to image 99P/Kowal from MPC #473. On 2007, March 12.09 we found an m2 of R~17.9; there is a small diffuse coma almost 20"...
Hi all !!!! Seeing that there are published few reports of the comet C/2005YW. We decide to photograph him with the change of the climate. Two nights that we...
Dear colleagues, Did anybody try to observe 135P/Shoemaker-Levy 8? Now it is about to be its best time to observe, however, it has not been observed in this ...
Hi to all, has anyone observed comet 106P/Schuster? The comet is not well placed in Pisces. The discoverer of this comet Hans-Emil Schuster lives here in my ...
Dear Andre, ... There have been a handful of astrometric observations reported on the MPCs and the "Observations of Comets" MPECs. The earliest reported...
Hi, last night I had observed this comet. I used a 16"Dobson with 188x /200x. The sky was exellent clear: 6.5mag UMI region. I certain his magnitude is...
... The mag 17,0 pusblished by the CBAT is a nuclear one, so a total magnitude 1 or 2 magnitudes brighter is expectable. ... I also observed this comet last...
Hello Stéphane and all, I also observed C / 2003 WT42 LINEAR 12 Mars; It showed effectively a long tail :-) Mesured magnitude m2 = 18.0; m1 = 16.0 (27 000 km...
... Hi at all, if you can interest you in this address I have put some images of the two comets of which is speaking. http://comete.uai.it/comete/comete...
Hi list, C/2006 E1 (Garradd) may develop into a small Easter surprise. The prediction puts it at a little brighter than 13 mag but I guess visually it may gain...
Last night I failed to catch (ephemeris via NEOCP) comet by CCD. It's in low clouds aroud southern horizon. But happy to see that it is a comet. The distance...
Stephane, I imaged comet on night 12/13. Looks nice in way of post- outburst evolution. The nuclear magnitude was around 15.8. Best regards, Maciej [Non-text...
Hi again! I recovered this comet on morning sky on March 12. The total magnitude I estimated at 16.0 mag. Preliminary measure of coma diameter - 0.5'....
