Remanzacco Observatory - Comets & Neo: Follow-up of splitting event in Comet 168P
Following the Remanzacco team’s detection of a fragmentation event with comet168P/Hergenrother on October 26, 2012, they requested via theFaulkes Telescope Education project that further observations be taken. Today, two UK Schools using the Faulkes Telescope kindly assisted in obtaining additional observations for them. The two schools (Queens College and the Dollar Academy) performed follow-up observations of this comet on 2012, Nov. 2.4, remotely through the 2m, f/10 Ritchey-Chretien + CCD of Faulkes Telescope North (Haleakala).
