Friends,
I just learned from Donald Yeomans of JPL that comet P/Tempel-Tuttle was
discovered today:
Today's IAU Circular 6579 announces the recovery of comet
55P/Tempel-Tuttle at Mauna Kea and La Silla - very close to its
predicted position. The estimated apparent magnitude was 22 - 22.5
Greetings,
-Peter
