Zitat:
Guoyou Sun (Wenzhou, Zhejiang, China) writes that he has discovered a
comet on CCD images taken on Jan. 19 by Xing Gao (Urumqi, Xinjiang, China)
using a 0.28-m f/2.2 Schmidt telescope at Xingming Observatory, Nanshan, in
the course of their search for comets near the sun. The object is distinctly
cometary on the discovery images, showing a diffuse coma 15" in diameter with
no tail.
