Dear Seiichi, dear all, ... this could mean a maximum brightness of at least 6 mag. Close monitoring is strongly recommended. Cheers, Maik -- If they give you...
Dear Maik Meyer, ... I think it is too optimistic :-) My observation means H10 = 8.5 mag, which suggests to be around 8.0 mag at best in July. Best regards, --...
Dear Seiichi, ... you are right - it was a typo, maybe wishful thinking. ;) Sorry for stirring up any hopes. Cheers, Maik -- If they give you ruled paper,...
Hi Chris, ... generally the comet attains never large solar elongation. A general overview can be found at http://aerith.net/comet/weekly/current.html Cheers,...
In my quest to find some Windows pc software to run Solar System comet simulations and also to learn more about orbital elements in general, I've discovered...
Good job, Ernesto & Giovanni! This comet will be an interesting object in late May. I thought that this comet was named 'Gibbs' but indeed 'Lemmon'....
Hi all, ... yes, congratulations to Ernesto and Guido! This comet is very interesting because of its quite small perihelions distance. Unfortunately the solar...

Hello Sato-san, Maik, and all, thanks! In spite of its apparent brightness, actually it was a tough target: very low in the sky at dawn also from Australia. ...
Jure - It is difficult to accurately interpert the nature of the apparent dust envelope displayed by the Great September Comet of 1882 since the drawings are...
Hello all. I was making a photos of C/2007 E2 comet in the time between 2007/05/02 20:23(UTC) and 2007/05/02 20:32(UTC). And i have 19 normal quality...

Concerning the features of Comet 1882 R1 mentioned by the last two posters, I hasten to add the following. Regarding the appearance of the "tube-like...
Hi list, I have uploaded three analysis updates by Andreas Kammerer. The comets covered are 96P (Fainter Comets), C/2007 E1 and C/2007 E2. Access as ususal at...
I am interested in hearing from everyone about their first comet observation. I would like to know the comet and what you used to observe it. What was the...
Hi Gary Enjoyed reading your first comet sighting and I do think this could be a very fascinating topic indeed! My own first comet was Hale - Bopp but my first...
OK, I'll bite . . . and it does tie in somewhat with the "Countdown" program I've been pushing. (And don't be surprised if I announce the next comet soon,...
Hi guys! My first comet was Halley's, i remember my dad dragging half our soccer team out to a dark site in western sydney and i saw it through a pair of 10x50...
... The first comet I saw (or thought I did) was Comet Seki around 1962. I was trying to see it through nasty plastic binoculars. I was in boarding school at...
