[Mick (Michael)]

Had a look at Comet Machholz last night, it's bright, mag 5.5. The central core was easy to see in bigger binos and it had a small tail in the 12" dob. We could see it naked eye from the burbs but the best view was through 20x80 binos. In 7x50's it looks like a hazey patch. well worth a look if you get a chance.
