209P/LINEAR is a periodic comet discovered on 3 February 2004 by Lincoln Near-Earth Asteroid Research (LINEAR) using a 1.0-metre (39 in) reflector.[1] Initially it was observed without a coma and named 2004 CB as a minor planet or asteroid, but in March 2004 Robert H. McNaught observed a comet tail which confirmed it as a comet.[5] It was given the permanent number 209P on 12 December 2008 as it was the second observed appearance of the comet.[6] Prediscovery images of the comet, dating back to December 2003, were found during 2009.[5] Arecibo imaging in 2014 showed the comet nucleus is peanut shaped and about 2.4 km in diameter.[7][8] The comet has extremely low activity for its size and is probably in the process of evolving into an extinct comet.

209P/LINEAR was recovered on 31 December 2018 at magnitude 19.2 by Hidetaka Sato, but not officially announced yet
