Comet Hale-Bopp
One of the MOST unique comets ever: bright stellar nucleus & interesting ion/dust tail dynamics. Bob Yen's comet-track expedition in the SouthWest US Desert was an overall success. World-wide acclaim by professional astronomers (ESO & Univ. of Hawaii). Media credits included Newsweek Magazine (lead photo, for cover-story article), PBS, & others.
