FYI, A pic posted in a group I belong to, showing what we can expect. Looks good to me. -- Joe ----- Forwarded Message ----- From: Adam Block <ngc1535@caelumobservatory.com> To: ngc1535@caelumobservatory.com Sent: Sunday, March 10, 2013 9:23 PM Subject: [SBIG] Comet PanStarrs Over Tucson Hi, Comet PanStarrs Over Tucson http://www.caelumobservatory.com/gallery/panstarrs03102013.shtml Here is (perhaps one of the first views of) Comet PanStarrs from Tucson, AZ. This might be a typical view from a city and this image is similar to what it looks like with binoculars. Look for the comet 30 minutes (exactly!) after sunset as it gets a little higher above the horizon each night this week. You will only have about 15 minutes to find and enjoy it before it sets. Needless to say, it is a challenge. The comet will be shown each night from the Mount Lemmon SkyCenter as part of our public shows. The SkyCenter will also publish images of it this week as it becomes more easily seen in the twilight (check our website for updates!). -Adam Block ---------------------------------------------------------- Adam Block ngc1535@caelumobservatory.com http://skycenter.arizona.edu (NEW!) http://caelumobservatory.com/ Caelum videre iussit, et erectos ad sidera tollere vultus.
