Plans are under way to create a new way of performing non-interactive observations which will be called auto-observing . ... Non-interactive observing with CIMA has for a long time been available with the use of CIMA command files. Contrary to normal command file observing which requires a command file with a set of commands to be executed sequentially, auto-observing will use a list of sources and a list of instructions on how to observe each of the sources. ...

... The comet 169P was first observed by the Near-Earth Asteroid Tracking system. In order to observe this comet we had to figure out if it was possible to view it from Faulkes Telescope South, a 2m reflecting telescope which is used for research as well as for use by school students around the world over the internet. ... Since 169P is such a bright object, we were able to use a red filter on some of our observations to provide a clearer image. ...
