New Comet Makes Its Debut

CometWatermark Learning was founded in 1992. Besides our founding, a lot was going on that year. Here are some noted firsts and other happenings in July of 1992.

Researchers David Jewitt, of the University of Hawaii; and Jane Luu, of the University of California at Berkeley, report the discovery of a very faint object with the University of Hawaii’s 2.2-meter telescope at Mauna Kea. The object, later identified as new comet “1992 QB1,” is approximately 64 million kilometers from the sun.

July 1 The USA/USSR Around The World Air Race begins at Santa Monica, California.
