Hello! I remember that there are a few people here on the list who like looking into the skies.
There is suddenly a naked eye comet in the sky. This comet brightened from mag 17 to 2 by Wednesday morning, and amateurs are stating it is naked eye even in a city. It is called comet Holmes. You should hear a lot about it in the next few days. The news is just hitting the blogs. http://www.skyandtelescope.com/resources/proamcollab/astroalert/10773186.html http://www.skyandtelescope.com/observing/highlights/10775326.html Enjoy!
