ISON may The Comet what people are waiting but Comet Lovejoy is still ahead of it in brightness. Making animation of the movement (30 x 2 min) was a lot of work but I think it was worth it.

If you look in the the very bottom center of this animation , about 1.5 inches upward just to the right of the double star, there is a secondary deep space object that you have captured, it appears to be an asteroid. You may want to have it identified, it is not a satellite nor a hot pixel.

I just noticed a second asteroid that you have captured. I hope you do not mind that I reuploaded them for you, showing the motion of the two Near earth objects.

There are two or three more but I wont point them out anymore.
