Abstract

This paper details a comprehensive search effort for the lost comet P/2010 H2 (Vales), a Jupiter-family comet that has not been recovered since its initial discovery. We analyze historical observations and apply advanced astrometric techniques to refine its orbital parameters and guide new observational campaigns, aiming to rediscover this important object for further study of its composition and evolution.
