 | | Comet 73P-Schwassmann-Wachmann 3 (2006), a Jupiter family comet, was discovered by two German astronomers Arnold Schwassmann and Arno Arthur Wachmann on May 2, 1930. |
 | | So it would be best to observe the comet in the morning sky after the Moon has set and before the onset of astronomical twilight. |
 | | Here are sketches I made of Comet Schwassmann Wachmann components B and C on: April 21st, 2006, on April 30th, 2006, on May 7th, 2006, and on May 17th, 2006. |
