The European SOHO-spacecraft (Solar and Heliospheric Observatory) has discovered over 1350 comets but using the LASCO coronagraph it has officially found a periodic comet: P/2007 R5 (SOHO).

Comet makes death plunge toward Sun.
On March 12th, the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) watched as a comet plunged into the sun and disappeared. Perfect animated gif. http://spaceweather.com/images2010/12mar10...31l41qhgb2hl2l3 -------------------- Free software for planetary science (including Cassini Image Viewer).
