Betreff des Beitrags:  Comet 144P/Kushida

Comet 144P/Kushida has brightened enough to now be visible in my small 50mm f/3.5 and ST-402ME setup. Magnitude estimates have it brightening to around magnitude 8 early in 2024 so these pages will be graced with nice images of the comet in the near future. Calculations on 20x60 second images with no filter showed the comet was magnitude G=13.9 in an aperture diameter of 2' on 2023 December 6.

144P on 2024 March 28 is slowly fading at magnitude G=11.1 as calculated from 15x30s images taken thru a green filter in a 3' aperture diameter. The comet still has a nice green coma in a crowded star field.
