Finding Lovejoy



Day 76: Comet Lovejoy is coming! I've given a very rough map here, translated from the "Sky & Telescope" version onto a star chart oriented specifically to my latitude, but it will give you an idea of where and when to look for this binocular/naked-eye object. It promises to be a real treat for anyone with a telescope, weather permitting. Get it now, folks! It won't be back for approximately 8,000 years!
