Description

First return of this periodic comet discovered by Michael Jäger on 1998, was recovered on July 12, 2013 by Krisztian Sarneczky (Konkoly Observatory). Since last September has increased its brightness until 12 magnitude at the begining of January 2014 when I took this image showing a greenish coma strongly condensed with only 1' diameter, also it can see a very short tail toward West.
