Heads up on Comet Lulin

Hi all,
Wasn't sure where to post this, thought about the Solar System forum, but as there are no images involved I have posted here.

Comet Lulin, a pristine new comet on a parabolic orbit is predicted to, maybe reach naked eye and will be well placed for Australian observers.

Comet Lulin will be close to Saturn on Feb 24th and very close to Regulus on Feb 28th.

Have attached the finder charts from the S & T bulletin.

For more info check out the Sky & Telescope weekly bulletin of 17/01/2009
