Guest telesto Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Just been reading about this new comet that is on it's way, It's called C/2012-S1,It's expected to buzz by the Sun late next year and if It stays intact it could be as bright as the moon,at the moment it's about as far out as Jupiter so next year in mid November through December 2013 and into January 2014 it could reach magnitude -11 to -16 which means it could be seen in daylight. Lets hope they got there maths right and its going to be as good as they say,It will be something to look forward to Clive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catman161 Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Even better to be able to be viewed at night too. What a target for astro imagers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
