text:
Comet C/2006 VZ13 (LINEAR), is a non-periodic comet discovered November 13, 2006 by the LINEAR. The object was initially believed to be a minor planet due to its stellar appearance in the early images. However, observers soon detected a small coma and the telltale green cometary cast. The comet peaked at approximately magnitude +7.5, much brighter than predicted. The comet made Earth approach on July 14, 2007 at a distance of 0.575 AU. Perihelion was August 10, 2007 at a distance of 1.015 AU.
