After one month and an half, at Virtual Telescope we visited again comet C/2011 J2 Linear and its fragment b, finding both of them in good shape. Fragment b has clearly faded since we...
Continuing our long coverage of this object, comet C/2011 J2 Linear and its fragment b was observed again under far-from-ideal weather conditions. While clouds were approaching and the sky was already significantly opaque, results...
As we saw last 6 Oct., comet C/2011 J2 Linear and its fragment b showed significant changes, with the smaller component apparently fading. The Moon was a serious issue, so further observations were planned...
Continuing the constant monitoring of comet C/2011 J2 Linear and its fragment, new observations were performed on 6 Oct. 2014, while an almost full, extremely bright Moon was present, with a very serious interference....
After we were informed about the discovery of a nucleus splitting event for comet C/2011 J2 Linear, providing prompt follow-up at that time, at Virtual Telescope the comet was constantly monitored and measured, in order...
As previously reported, at Virtual Telescope we provided a precious follow-up to confirm the nucleus splitting of comet C/2011 J2 Linear. Eleven days after our last observations, we managed to slew again the 17″ robotic...
Late last August, several observers (F. Manzini, V. Oldani, and A. Dan, Stazione Astronomica di Sozzago, Italy; R. Crippa, Osservatorio di Tradate, Italy; and R. Behrend, Geneva Observatory) noted that comet C/2011 J2 Linear was apparently showing...
