Comets for 14th May 2016

Comets for 14 May 2016
2013 X1 Panstarrs. Quite a difficult comet to process, bright core and coma and faint tails, had quite a fight to lift them from the back ground.
252P Linear slowly fading, but still impressive.
116P Wild. Steady some colour to the small coma.
Panstarrs and Linear are both around magnitude 7.5.
116P is around 11.5

Cheers,

Justin.

Nice comets Justin - well done. You've done a good series on 252P.
Linear should start getting brighter.

Tony.
