Bruce Gary Comet ISON - Updates will soon be DISCONTINUED!!
On the Amateur Observers website he states:

Updates to this web pages will soon be discontinued. I have concluded that the professional astronomical community has no need for these amateur observations (because they have their own database that is much better, but not in the public domain), and the amateur astronomy community has no interest in quantitative analyses (because all they want are "pretty pictures.")

This project has been fun, but when "fun" turns to "work" (unpaid), it's time to move on to another project.

Why stop research now, when it's coming to the most 'exciting' position ??

bump Interesting to say the least. I have heard this guy is respected in some circles so it is hard to believe he is just butthurt, and is "taking his ball and going home" so to speak.

Hmmm, you guys may be right; in that, he was told to stop or was paid to stop.

If this thing was really a problem don't you think they would have just kept the government shut down? It would have made a lot more sense. A lot more.

Don't you think there would be some concern of its close approach rather than simply its tail? Would they really take that gamble? Wouldn't they allow themselves far more of a safety buffer than last minute/too late jan 15th?

Maybe they actually just are not concerned with it at all.
