| Comet '''C/2010 X1 (Elenin)''' is a [[long-period comet]] discovered by Russian [[amateur astronomer]] [[Leonid Elenin]] on December 10, 2010, through [[Amateur astronomy#Remote control telescopes|remote control]] of the [[International Scientific Optical Network]]'s robotic observatory near [[Mayhill, New Mexico|Mayhill]] in the U.S. state of [[New Mexico]]. The discovery was made using the automated asteroids discovery program [http://www.lpi.usra.edu/meetings/lpsc2012/pdf/1049.pdf CoLiTec]. At the time of discovery, the comet had an [[apparent magnitude]] of 19.5,<ref name="MPEC2010-X101"/> making it about 150,000 times fainter than can be seen with the [[naked eye]].<ref>[[Apparent magnitude#Calculations|Math]]: <math>(\sqrt[5]{100})^{19.5-6.5}\approx 158489</math></ref> The discoverer, Leonid Elenin, originally estimated that the [[comet nucleus]] was 3–4 km in diameter,<ref name=size>{{cite web |url=http://spaceobs.org/en/asteroids-comets/faq/ |title=Comet Elenin FAQ | SpaceObs |first=Leonid |last=Elenin }}</ref> but more recent estimates place the pre-breakup size of the comet at 2 km.<ref name="NASA2011-331">{{cite web |date=October 25, 2011 |title=NASA Says Comet Elenin Gone and Should Be Forgotten |publisher=NASA/JPL |url=http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/news.cfm?release=2011-331&cid=release_2011-331 |accessdate=2011-10-26}} [http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/asteroids/news/elenin20111025.html (Backup link)]</ref> Comet Elenin started disintegrating in August 2011,<ref name="UT2011-08"/> and as of mid-October 2011 was not visible even using large ground-based telescopes.<ref name="Remanzacco2"/>
