Lulin is not a periodic comet. It is expected the comet will not return to the inner solar system for more than a thousand years, and some predict it never will return.
Very nice capture. My camera's battery died a half hour after I finally got the tracking down (doh!). Amazing clarity too, I'm surprised by how little noise you seem to get.
Great video! I like how you set up the motor drive on your telescope so it followed the comet and not the stars. You had good exposure to see the green colour I couldn't see looking at it with binoculars, where all I saw was a white fuzz ball. Thanks for sharing this video.
Awesome video, grats! :)

You did a great job on the video! If I didn't have airplane over my town 24/7 spraying chemtrails maybe I could use my telescope!

I live under eternal cloud in dog-shit England.
Did not see it at all.

Funny story, I told a co-worker about the comet, she asked me "where is it going to hit?" I never struggled so hard not to laugh in my life.

What do you mean by that? Do you mean there's a comet tonight? Or it's just a joke... I dont understand...
