Boy Discovers New Comet by Cottage Grove Farm Lad
J. Méilisch, a young Wisconsin farm boy with meager schooling, reportedly discovered a new comet using a home built telescope. Professors Comstock and Flint at the Washburn Observatory confirm the find, with the object moving eastward about eight degrees daily and seen again at Yerkes Observatory the same night. The comet appears as a smoky, headless trail about 60,000,000 miles away, and Méilisch plans to pursue astronomy as a profession, potentially joining York Observatory at Lake Geneva.
