Very cool pic MSgalileo. I've been told that if I look outdoors tonight I will be able to see the comet. Last week we had a Russian rocket re-enter the atmosphere and I saw that and was thoroughly impressed. I'm looking forward to this tonight, if the clouds cooperate. Thank you for the heads up!

Anybody saw it? The weather was naughty so I didn't get to see anything.

Default Comet

Those ads at the top of the page must be basing their content on the content of each thread - there are now comet-related books in the ads for this thread.

Great picture BTW MSgalileo. I'll have a look at that site to see if this comet will ever be visible from my university.
