On December 10th of last year, 29 years old Leonid Elenin, an amateur astronomer in Lyubertsy, Russia spotted what appeared to be an unfamiliar star in our celestial neighborhood. Interestingly, Leonid did not have a telescope, was not in a local observatory, and it was not even night time in Lyubertsy! He was remotely operating a telescope 9380 kilometer away in Mayhill, New Mexico, U.S.
