[BAA Comets] Comet C/2014 Q2 Lovejoy

[Tony Angel]

Hi All,

I saw most of it the event unfold on the Comet Watch Facebook page. At about 
0200 hours this morning Cristovao Jacques posted a notice from the MPC 
asking Terry if it was his. I checked the coordinates and noted that it 
would not be visible for me.  A friend of mine Andres Chapman in Argentina 
posted that he would be able to observe the location and coordinated his 
observations with Terry which he did at 0835 UT, then Cristovao Jacques came 
through with his observations eight hours ago. Quite a nail biting 
experience.

Tony Angel.
