Heads up!!!

It looks as if Comet McNaught has just made its appearance in the SOHO field (at about the 11:00 position) -- and, boy, is it bright!!

I missed it tonight due to weather. Pulled up my Starry Night and looks like I got maybe a 10 minute window to catch it from here when it's dark enough to see and still above the horizon at about 17:06 to 17:16

In the next couple of days, the 48-hr MPEGs of the SOHO LASCO-3 field at

http://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov/data/LATEST/current_c3small.mpg

should be well worth watching.

(The above URL is for the small (256 X 256) MPEG. The larger (512 X 512) MPEG at

http://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov/data/LATEST/current_c3.mpg

appears to have a problem right now)
