K07V85A    => P 2007 VA85 LINEAR

Following the message from Mr. Hidetaka Sato, the Comet ml-list :

"I got the 3rd night of 2007VA85 and found a tail-like construction.
But no cometary nature was reported, including my precovery observations, when it was on NEOCP.
If the construction is real, it may be short transient like C/2002 CE10 and P/2012 NJ."
