Wow! Thanks for posting that Daniel. I'd given up on seeing Lovejoy. See http://www.spaceweather.com/ for a couple of incredible movies showing the comet emerging from behind the Sun. That it survived is a great surprise though I don't know that after its encounter with million degree temps I'd call Lovejoy "well". Clear sky clock looks good for the morning. But I don't think it takes the smog and fog into account. I may drive to the salt flats. patrick On 15 Dec 2011, at 23:00, daniel turner wrote:

Yahoo reports NASA saying that it has survived and will be viewable tomorrow morning.
