  ESA - Space Science - Hubble provides spectacular view of ongoing comet break-up
Analysis of the new Hubble data, and data taken by other observatories as the comet approaches the Earth and Sun, may reveal which of these break-up mechanisms are contributing to the disintegration of 73P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 3.
German astronomers Arnold Schwassmann and Arno Arthur Wachmann discovered this comet during a photographic search for asteroids in 1930, when the comet passed within 9.3 million kilometres of the Earth (only 24 times the Earth-Moon distance).
The comet orbits the Sun every 5.4 years, but it was not seen again until 1979.

The third of Arnold Schwassmann and Arno Wachmann's comets has recently put on an astonishing display in our skies with over 63 fragments being identified and the comet visible to the naked eye at closest approach.
As with the other two of the pair's comets, it was discovered on photographic plates taken at the Hamburg Observatory during routine minor planet surveys between 1927 and 1930.
Both are rapidly moving out of the evening sky and will be lost to UK skies in a fortnight.

German astronomers Arnold Schwassmann and Arno Arthur Wachmann first discovered the SW 3 comet in 1930 while hunting for asteroids.
Despite its relatively short orbital period, the icy object was not seen again until 1979, and then was missed during a 1985 pass.

 Schwassmann-Wachmann 1, Comet --  Encyclopædia Britannica
comet discovered photographically by the German astronomers Friedrich Carl Arnold Schwassmann and Arthur Arno Wachmann in 1927.
It has the most nearly circular orbit of any comet known (eccentricity 0.131) and remains always between the orbits of Jupiter and Saturn.
People now look forward with interest to sighting a comet, but for many centuries comets were believed to have an evil influence on human affairs; in particular, they were thought to foretell plagues, wars, and death.

Si ritiene, pur con qualche riserva, che i due eventi siano strettamente collegati, e che il grande aumento nella produzione di gas e polveri sia dovuto all'esposizione di nuova materia dal nucleo cometario che è stata esposta per la prima volta allo spazio esterno.
La cometa Schwassmann-Wachmann 3 fu scoperta il 2 Maggio 1930 su una lastra fotografica ottenuta all'Osservatorio di Amburgo in Germania, da due astronomi ceh vi lavoravano: Arnold Schwassmann ed Arthur Arno Wachmann.
Le successive osservazioni mostrarono che si muovevo lungo un'orbita ellittica con un periodo di rivoluzione di poco più di 5 anni.
