Default Amateur Don Machholz Discovers His 12th Comet!

Arizona comet hunter Don Machholz did it again! He discovered his 12th comet only two mornings ago. Set your alarm, grab your scope, and take a look.

How much money he gets for it, $20k?

Odd that the article says that this Arizona amateur discovered this comet from his home in Colfax, California... isn't it?

Maybe he lives in both places?
