P/2005 XA54 (LONEOS-Hill)
It appeared stellar and did not look like a comet. I wonder
if it has a faint tail. I targeted three periodic comets that had not been
recovered last year. I was completed exhausted after repeating a 30-minute
exposure three times. However, the beautiful stars helped me persist against
the extreme cold. The driving capability of the 60cm reflector was excellent,
but it could not be left completely unguided. I had to gaze at a guide
star in an uncomfortable posture. A number of meteors were streaking across
the dome's opening.
