G. J. Leonard recovered comet P/2005 T5 (cf. IAUC 8621) accidentally on
CCD images obtained by on Sept. 24 UT with the Mount Lemmon Survey 1.5-m
reflector. He reported it to the Minor Planet Center as a recovery, and D.
Rankin then acquired follow-up CCD observations on the following night with
the 1-m Steward Observatory reflector at Mt. Lemmon, which showed a condensed
coma about 4" across with a straight tail about 6" long in p.a. about 260
degrees.
