Az. amateur astronomer Don Machholz discovered his 12th comet. It's in the morning sky in Virgo. Getting brighter and as it nears I'll update to where you can see it. There is some hope that it will be visible to the eye. There is also another comet (Wirtanen), in the morning sky that you will be able to see from a dark sky place. Again when it is visible I'll let you know where to look.

Posted by starwatcher-alI missed the early phases of the eclipse but the clouds mostly left during totality. All in all a great eclipse. Next one is Nov. 8-22
