General Description

A simple imaging program: we are following up comet Hale Bopp as it moves
 away from the sun.  

* update the coordinates and tracking rates from the attached ephemerides.  !!!
 beware of the UT date !!! in UT, you are probably already tomorrow  

* point and shoot 

The coordinates are very accurate, so the target is there (if not, you screwed up
 the coordinates :o)

Waiver Requests

380.C-0548A.01.WAV requested 2007-07-29, granted 2007-07-30: OBs of 1.5h.

380.C-0548A.02.WAV requested 2007-07-29, granted 2007-07-30: no finding chart attached
 for this moving target. The 70+ finders to check the field are at http://www/paranal/sciops/observations/halebopp80/
