Comet McNaught, the brightest comet to appear in our skies in more than 30 years, has been putting on a spectacular show in the eastern sky at dawn and the western sky at dusk this week.


Has anyone seen it?

Yes, sometimes over here, sometimes over there:

I tried to spot it every sunset but the interference here is too much, and the last two days there was just the slightest of cloud cover exactly where it shouldn't be so I never got to see it. SOHO has its eye on it now, but seeing it in person would be 100x cooler. I'm pretty sure they still don't know how bright it's going to be after it pulls around and comes back, but it'll only be visible in the southern hemisphere at that time so it doesn't matter anyway. Pity.
