Born Hunter 17,960 Posted July 13, 2020 Report Share Posted July 13, 2020 I thought it was only visible in the morning before sunrise at the moment but it'll transition to an evening sight shortly. I think it's tail has an apparent length three times the width of the moon! And it's getting bigger! I'm looking forward to seeing it. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mushroom 14,207 Posted July 13, 2020 Report Share Posted July 13, 2020 (edited) Tried to spot it yesterday but I don't think it rose high enough for us to see it from where we were. (Beach, with a lot of mountain terrain between us and the comet. I'm hoping it'll be easier to see later in the month We did get a spectacular view of Saturn, Jupiter, Venus, Mars and Mercury though. So by the time Venus was rising, we had 5 planets in one sky view. Pretty awesome tbf Edited July 13, 2020 by mushroom Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Greb147 6,810 Posted July 13, 2020 Report Share Posted July 13, 2020 Who can remember Shoemaker-Levy 9? I was enthralled yet worried because the press was full of "What if it hit earth?" headlines. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
