Comet C/2014 E2 Jacques was observed again on 30 Aug. 2014. The image above comes from 7, 180-seconds exposures, remotely taken with the 17″ robotic unit part of the Virtual Telescope. They were median combined to remove...
On 26 Aug. 2014, comet C/2014 E2 Jacques, we observed again. The image above comes from 9, 180-seconds exposures, remotely taken with the 17″ robotic unit part of the Virtual Telescope. They were median combined to...
Continuing the close monitoring of comet C/2014 E2 Jacques, we observed it again on 23 Aug. 2014. The image above comes from 9, 180-seconds exposures, remotely taken with the 17″ robotic unit part of the Virtual...
On its way back to the outer Solar System, comet C/2014 E2 Jacques is continuously changing its aspect, so at Virtual Telescope we are trying to cover it closely. The image above comes from...
As you know, at Virtual Telescope we managed to cover quite extensively the passage of comet C/2013 UQ4 Catalina while at its minimum distance from the Earth, last July. Then, the comet constantly reduced...
After the detailed sight of the night before, when the ion tail was less apparent than on previous observations, comet C/2014 E2 Jacques was observed again and the ion tail was bright (but narrower)...
For sure, supernova SN 2014J in M82 has been one of the most important seen in recent years. At Virtual Telescope we tracked it since its discovery and wanted to see how bright it...
Discovered on 13 Nov. 2013 from Morocco, comet C/2013 V5 Oukaimeden looked as an interesting object since then. Its luminosity could peak at mag. 5.5 around mid-September, so it deserves attention (as always...
Last night, even if the sky was not at its best, we managed to take several images of comet C/2014 Jacques via the Virtual Telescope, using all the telescopes available, providing different scales and...
On its journey across the stars, comet c/2014 E2 Jacques is apparently meeting several deep sky objects. We managed to capture a snapshot of the comet while it was in the same sky spot...

*** With this image we wish to celebrate the 8th year of activity of the Virtual Telescope, happening today! Join the online, special observing session here*** At Virtual Telescope Project, we observed the comet C/2014...
After more than one week of stop, once the Moon moved away, we observed the comet C/2014 E2 Jacques again. The image above comes from the average of 6, 180-seconds exposures, remotely taken with...
After ten days from our last observations, at Virtual Telescope we imaged comet C/2013 UQ4 Catalina again, despite it was only around 30 degrees above the western horizon, ad dusk. The image above comes from...
