R. E. Hill (LPL) reports his discovery of a new comet on Jan. 6, 2010, in the course of the Catalina Sky Survey. After placement on the NEO Confirmation Page E. C. Beshore (Mt. Lemmon), Y. Ikari (Moriyama), P. Birtwhistle (Great Shefford), H. Sato (remotely from near Mayhill), and W. H. Ryan (Magdalena Ridge) were able to confirm the cometary nature of the 17.5m object. The first and preliminary orbit for comet C/2010 A1 (Hill) indicates perihelion on Jun. 24, 2010, at about 1.0 AU. The comet might be of short period. This is the 84th comet for the Catalina Sky Survey and the 20th for Hill. It might reach 11m in July.
