Hi Karl and List, I should have checked my astro program first before submitting my recent C3 comet claim. As Karl guessed, the object is indeed Vesta. --Rob...
Hi list, I have just posted a follow-up on my Kreutz claim of May 05. I was hoping that the missing images of 17:54 and 18:06 will finally decide the case...
Since I can't access the main site, I thought I'd post this claim here: Possible non-group comet in LASCO C2 (1024 x 1024, 0,0 in upper left corner) ...
If real, the object fades considerably between 0230 and 0330; there's a spot at 20050508_0330 656,995 but I can't make out anything much at 0354. I suppose...
Hi all, please could you indicate the date of the images instead of your local date when posting a claim? The latest Kreutz is always indicated as 20050513,...
Hi all: I am so apologize for my serious wrong report yesterday,the reasons of this mistake cause by my "big" careless,that is,I put the differece day's...
Hi list, just a reminder that around this date the return of two Marsden group comets of 1999 might be possible. Unfortunately we have currently only the "bad"...
To whom it may concern: There have been a large number of false "non-group" posts lately. We see VERY FEW non-group comets -- please report a MINIMUM of three ...
Hello everyong! This afternoon , a strange thing happened with me about the EIT pictures. I downloads some EIT pictures to try to find if there is some comets...
Hello pzcchina2000, ... because of a) the small radial distance from the sun and b) the small band in the spectrum it is highly improbable that a comet will...
Hi All, I hope all of you are well, I was trying to find a SOHO comet, but I couldn’t find a comet yet. This message is just for apologizing all of you....
Hi all still trying,... anyways just posted a claim for c-2 and I vagly remember sonething about rate of travel,... 12 pixals comes to mind but over what time...
Hi, Ali-- Almost every new SOHO hunter posts noise at first--just be sure to retract reports when you realize they are not real. It's good that you're...
Hi, Parrish, A look at claims for recent comets that have been confirmed on the reports page or in the reports archive should give you that information (which...
hi tony, I was really questioning just that,.. thank for the info. it's a good way to judge agaisnt a claim the speed of a comet thanks parrish [Non-text...
Hi all, I have modified the report form script again -- this time it is to prevent ".." being used in place of a comet position.... As always, if I have...
Hi Heiner, ... it is most likely an artifact coming from the blooming of the CCD chip, the internal design of the coronagraph and the image processing. Cheers,...
... The clue is in the blotches... look at them closely and you'll see one in the top-right that looks like an extended image of Mercury (? or Venus..? I...
Thanks, Karl-- That's great news -- maybe SOHO will last to see another thousand comets, though hopefully its replacements will be launched in due order. Tony...
I am sorry for my initial one-position post on the C2 comet there. I had filled in two positions of data but had neglected to put in the time for 0824, and so...
Hello, I have been trying to figure out which direction a Kreutz group comet would be coming from if I was to look up in the direction of the sun. I live in...
Hi, Steve-- In the LASCO images, south is down, so at midday (at this time of year) the Kreutz stream would be approaching the Sun from the lower right, just...
Thanks for the reply Tony. I've often wondered if one of the larger Kreutz group comets or any of the other sungrazers could be observed with a fairly large...
Hi, Steve-- Hunters look for them telescopically, but Kreutz comets that are detectable in the night sky are rare--and very often spectacular. None have even...
C/2002 V1 (NEAT) was very beautiful, as was 96P Machholz (both times) but yes, I think Bradfield was the most impressive, if only for the enormous length of...
