Designation

[edit]

Why was this article moved to C/2019 U7? JPL still has it listed as A/2017 U7. Has a coma been observed? Agmartin (talk) 20:25, 21 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

https://minorplanetcenter.net/mpec/K19/K19QD5.html also lists it as A/2017 U7 Agmartin (talk) 20:37, 21 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
as does this https://www.minorplanetcenter.net/mpec/K19/K19Q02.html Agmartin (talk) 20:56, 21 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I think I see what happened, sometime before this May ( https://minorplanetcenter.net/mpec/K19/K19JE2.html ) they switched it back. Agmartin (talk) 21:14, 21 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
"This object, originally designated A/2017 U7, has been found to display cometary features. https://www.minorplanetcenter.net/mpec/K20/K20F58.html that's settled then. Agmartin (talk) 02:23, 20 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
