With the Telescope.Live research team, we could observe a new object, mentioned on the PCCP of the minorplanetcenter on april 2 with a remote Telescope.Live 0.61-m f/6.5 reflector in Rio Hurtado, Chile. Later was this object assigned as comet C/2022 F1 (ATLAS)
comet and spectroscopic observations on 27 march 2022
The sky looks clear again for the whole night, so I decided to observe comets all night with the 0.4-m f/3.8 Orion Optics AG16 telescope. The following comets were observed: 4P, 19P, 29P, 67P, 70P, 71P, 99P, 104P, 116P, C/2017 K2, C/2019 L3, C/2019 U5, C/2020 F2, C/2020 H6, C/2020 J1, C/2020 K1, C/2020 M5. With the C11 + LHiRess III spectrograph I was able to obtain 2 spectra Zeta Ori and PZ Gem.
comet and spectroscopic observations on 24 march
comet and spectroscopic observations on 23 march
during this clear evening of 23 march , i could capture several comets: 4P, 19P, 29P, 67P, 104P, 116P, C/2019 L3. With the C11 + LHiresIII spectrograph, i could obtain a spectrum of zeta Ori and PZ Gem.
new comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF)
with our Rcomet research team of Telescope.Live, we could observe a new object mentioned on the PCCP of the minorplanetcenter and could confirm the cometary nature of this object that was later assigned as comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF) . Observation made on 2022 march 20.
comet and spectroscopic observations on 10 march
new comet C/2022 E2 (ATLAS)
with are comet research team of Telescope.live, we could confiorm the cometary nature of the new comet C/2022 E2 (ATLAS), while this object was still mentioned on the PCCP of the minorplanetcente on 2022 march 10. Observation was made with the Telescope.Live 0.61-m f/6.5 refelctor in Rio Hurtado, Chile.
comet and spectroscopic observations on 9 march 2022
during this evening i could observe several comets: 4P, 19P, 29P, 67P, 104P, 116P, C/2019 L3, P/2021 N2. Also some spectra could be obtained with the C11 and LHiReSS spectrograph: zeta Ori, PZ Gem and 4 Her.
new comet C/2022 A3 (LEMMON-ATLAS)
On 3 March, I observed an object: A10GhLU, listed on the PCCP-page (possible comet confirmation page) of the MPC (minorplanetcenter), with my 0.4-m f/3.8 AG16 telescope in my backyard and was also able to confirm its cometary appearance and send a report to CBAT and MPC. Later, this object was assigned as comet C/2022 A3 (LEMMON-ATLAS) via CBET 5106 issued on 7 March 2022.
spectroscopic observation on 6 march
The clear nights follow each other nicely. With the C11 telescope + LHiress-III spectrograph, I capture a spectrum of Be-star: PZ Gem (3 hour observation) in high resolution (R > 15000)
