There is a visual comet observing campaign running as well, I think I recall its a NASA program, and there are several aussies already involved with this. Perhaps someone else can fill us in with some info on it.
I put my name down for the comet 'job' but from the details they have recently provided they are looking for people with experience and documented comet hunting experience. High end amateurs. Enrolment is finished anyway. Selection of the 'few' is taking place now.
