BROOKS' COMET, 1911 V.
The name indicates that the Comet was dis-
covered by Brooks and that it was the fifth
comet in 1911 to pass perihelion (nearest ap-
proach to the sun). The details of the tail are
complex and very interesting. Photograph by
Barnard 19 Oct. 1911 Bruce Telescope, Yerkes
Observatory.
