Nice article -- I'll be linking it to any posts I make about C/2019 Q4 (Borisov). And thanks for the quick addition of the elements for Borisov to ST4i, but will they be available for ST3 soon?
I just ran the "Update 'Current' Lists from Web" in ST3.2k Pro and it shows "Current Comets updated 2019 September 2," so no Borisov. Then I downloaded supplemental data, comets, "MPC Observable," but still no Borisov. The latest comet now listed on a designation search is C/2019 J2 (Palomar), apparently from May 2019. Is that a consequence of the computer problems MPC had in June 2019?
