I was out last night for a moment.
The night was cold in the desert but the sky was brilliant. The stars were shining above me. Orion glided onto the scene taking up most of the arena. Off to the north and west was Jupiter following the gallant hunter.
Tonight when I get my optical fix, I will be taking my binoculars with me. Comet Lovejoy should be passing near Orion's belt.
Here is the article with the information link: Comet Lovejoy Closest This Week.
I hope everyone enjoys finding this tailless comet as much as I will.
Have a great and wonderful evening!
