Ziggy et al,
It's amazing that you listed your top 5. I was going to do the same in my post but decided to keep it brief. Here are my top 5
1. Hale-Bopp
2. Shoemaker-Levy 9 impact marks on Jupiter
3. My first close Mars opposition in 1971
4. Mercury transit Nov 2006
5. A spectacular June Bootid meteor shower I wasn't planning on viewing
I also have a host of WOW deep sky and doubles but this post IS about the McNaught experience.
Clear skies,
Ed
