I observed Comet C/217P Linear early this morningsmall with a tail of about 15' long and about mag 9 or so.
I enjoyed the view, but i think it will take a scope of 8" or more to see clearly.
Thanks for the notification
I was also able to see to see Comet C/22p Kopff small round with a bright centre fainter around edges, this Comet seems to have been around for ever
I always have a look for it when I get the chance
Comet C/2006 W3 Christenson makes a fine sight high in the sky in Saggitta in the early night sky
