In guess you are going to need a reasonably capable telescope and a suitable camera to begin with.

Comet are a popular target for amateurs, they have found several. If you find one you will earn naming ritghts - .http://www.scientificamerican.com/a...s-how-do-amateur-astronomers-discover-comets/ asteroids are another possibility but the odds are lower. Supernova are another possibility, but, naming rights are more limited.
