I will be looking for this tonight but what else is interesting on that site is you can find the comet Lovejoy by looking for Orion’s belt and then looking to the right and up about 20 degrees:)

I finally got to see the comet last night. We’ve had clouds, clouds, and more clouds for weeks.
I only used binoculars because it was too durn cold and windy to mess with the telescope. But the comet was quite obvious when I got them aimed at the right spot.

I hope the clouds will stay away this evening so I can view Mercury and Venus.
