The Comet: Chance to see again and where to look
Here are some great local pictures just after sunset yesterday of the comet panSTARRS.
From WTOP's Dave Dilldine and from a viewer in Warrenton.
The clouds are clearing so another chance to try and see it again, or for the first time this evening 7:30-7:45. Here is where to look.
And another chance Thursday evening.
Thanks to Fred Espenak for the great diagrams. Fred also created this wonderful timelapse of the comet just after sunset a few days ago in Arizona.

Fred still calculates all the times of eclipses and is a retired NASA Goddard scientist. Visit his Mr. Eclipse page for more great astronomical information. And try and "catch a comet" before clouds and some wet weather this weekend.
