Title: Comet Neowise
Post by: Clive on July 12, 2020, 11:25

I was up at 2.30 this morning to look at the new comet and can confirm it's a stunning object.  The head is pointing downwards and the tail is vertical.  Tomorrow it will have moved to the evening sky where it can be seen in the northwest soon after sunset.

True.  It will be another 7800 years before it returns to our skies so make the most of it.   ;D
