BAA electronic bulletin
======================================================================
The January 2011 edition of the Comet Section newsletter is available for download in pdf format from the Section web page at:
If you normally receive a printed version, but are happy to download please confirm this, unless you have already received notification of its availability. This is the last edition that will also be distributed in printed form, and I plan to get it printed next week.
Comet 103P/Hartley is now a diffuse telescopic object of 10th magnitude, but currently still the brightest comet observable from the UK. The newsletter includes updated prospects for comets during 2011, including that of the new discovery 2010 X1 (Elenin). This may become a naked eye object in October, though the orbit is not yet known well enough to give precise details of the track. I will post further details when it comes into visual range.
