Hi

Comet C/2010 X1 Elenin could become a moderately bright (4th or 5th mag) comet in the Autumn of 2011.

A preliminary orbit has it tracking north-west through Leo, Cancer and Gemini after solar conjunction in mid September 2011.


It was discovered by L. Elenin in Moscow, Russia with a remote telescope in New Mexico, USA.
