BAZ Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Sadly it won't be visible from here, but also lucky in case they got it wrong, it will be going by Australia. http://www.heavens-above.com/2012da14.aspx?lat=0&lng=0&loc=Unspecified&alt=0&tz=UCT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Fluke Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Thats a shame - watched the repeat of the Sky at Night earlier and they suggested it'll go through the Plough between 9.30-10.30pm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perkil8r Posted February 9, 2013 Author Share Posted February 9, 2013 Thats a shame - watched the repeat of the Sky at Night earlier and they suggested it'll go through the Plough between 9.30-10.30pm I saw that too, I'm wondering if it will be the case that it just won't be "lit up" by the reflection of the sun in such a way as to make it visible to us?
