So our "slow" June did manage to redeem itself, and we ended with 19
for the month - same as 2014, and close to 2012. For the year as a
whole the numbers are very typical, if perhaps a little high. Typical
discovery count by June 30 for the past few years is:
2015 - 112
2014 - 98
2013 - 116
2012 - 109
2011 - 107
The four-year average for comet discoveries in both July and August is
about 14/month, so we should reach 2,900 by the end of July and 3,000 by
mid-August or so.
As always, email me with questions, corrections, etc. I don't always get
chance to respond to every email, but I do read them!
Regards,
