                            COMET C/2019 M3 (ATLAS)                             

     This object was initially reported on 2019 July 1 UT as asteroidal by the ATLAS team (T05). Subsequently, K. Sarneczky (K88) reported cometary activity observed in a stack of three 120-second images, displaying a very condensed 4" coma and a broad tail in P.A. between 240 and 300. Other reports of cometary features are summarized below:

OC   Date     Reporter           Coma    Tail

K88 July 01   K. Sarneczky       4"      15"  in P.A. 240-300 (3 x 120s)

F65 July 01   J. D. Armstrong             7"  West of South West

U69 July 01   H. Sato            8"      10"  in P.A. 275 (10 x 60s)

K88 July 02   K. Sarnecky        8"      30"  in P.A. 250-300 (3 x 120s)
