is fast approaching and the weekend weather forecast looks pretty good. Here is a finder chart for the coming weeks (click to enlarge.) I downloaded the latest ephemeris (orbital data) and created this sky map showing the trajectory of the comet across the southern sky - simply look south with the chart in front of you. Unfortunately one has to wake up at 4 am to see this interesting object, which eliminates most students. No telescope necessary, but binoculars are helpful.
