Hopefully it won't fizzle out like the infamous Kohoutek comet of '74.
Debbie, I remember seeing comet Kohoutek back then, in a 4.25" f/10 Newtonian, at the tender age of 15. I was disappointed that the smudge I saw in the eyepiece didn't live up to the hype, but was still thrilled that I'd found a real comet all by myself. Little did I know what awaited me just a few seasons ahead! Comet West more than made up for Kohoutek's fizzle, but didn't get nearly the press. Another West would be sweet.
