Comet Lovejoy Going Strong


Comet ISON has come and gone, but lovely Comet Lovejoy (C/2013 R1) is still going strong. It is now at or near peak brightness, and well placed in the Northern Hemisphere's predawn sky. If the weather would only clear up I would be up bright and early looking to photograph Lovejoy once more before the moon interferes. Info on observing Comet Lovejoy is available on SkyAndTelescope.com.
