Re: [guide-user] P/73 fragments

Fragment C elements are not the same. I simply entered the elements in
New Comet Data... in the Extra toolbar. Very simply way and you can name
it what ever you wish.


Here is the link to the file. Copy the elements into the appropriate
line and you should be good to go. You'll need date, q, e, peri, node
and incl. Set Absolute magnitude between 14 to 16, not critical, play
with the setting as required.

Look down the file until you see elements for each fragments. These are
the most accurate this far.
