Now I have a minor planet. It was discovered by Ovidiu Vaduvescu using images by Euronear Project taken at Roque de los Muchachos, La Palma, Spain. This is a 2.2-km wide asteroid, revolving around the Sun every 5.62 years, at an average distance of 470 million km.🗿🙂 www.wgsbn-iau.org/files/Bullet...

The appearance of Comet Hyakutake in 1996 had ended a long drought of great comets. But the weather in March 1996 was not very favourable. I was able to see Hyakutake at its closest for 10 minutes only. When I took this single picture 30 years ago today, clouds were coming back already.
