hey now, that's not nice.
to be honest, it's hard to get them mixed up because for some reason they keep naming several of them Lovejoy. I've lost count of how many, but if I remember correctly at least four or five Lovejoys. (mixes me up sometimes too).
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 68817180 I agree, it's easy to mix them up - but if I make a post about this matter, I should do some research beforehand to avoid a mix-up. the article was actually a great reminder because of the Lovejoy that grazed and survived earlier in the year.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 68817180 That one, C/2011 W3 (Lovejoy), survived only two days, disintegrated and is no more (even if he had survived, it would by now 13 AU in the southern constellation Monoceros, nowhere near Polaris) and this was in December 2011. And now it's near one of the most important stars relevant to the balance of our system! symbolic, don't you think?
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 68817180 The one near Polaris is C/2014 Q2 (Lovejoy). .
