PS I think it has been mentioned here, but if your not aware and it may be obvious , but it helps a lot to block the moon out with a tree or building or something when viewing the comets in these conditions - and beware the moon just gets closer to the comets now till its gone again - go for it! I would be interested in some telescopic view reports now  |
Fringy, Normally I am as blind as a bat, but this morning was something very special, and probably will never happen again, the moon was easily blocked out. But the sky conditions were supurb. I wished I had the scope setup to do some imaging. The smudges were not very big either, but with the skychart it was easy to identify the comet bits. You are correct the moon will be a problem, then again, it is getting less and less bright.
