Comet 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann is most likely in a strong outburst. I imaged this comet earlier today and noticed a condensed inner coma of 0.4' in diameter with classic outburst appearance. Outer coma is large and very diffuse. Total magnitude measured is m1=12.4:, dust production rate is huge Af(Rho)=20336¡À678 cm.
