Well, it's [1] made the news [2] recently, and seeing as tonight is just about the first clear night for a while, I thought I'd go play. The moon was very bright tonight, almost too bright, most things were unobtainable. I did manage to get a nice view of mars again, and could clearly see the bright pole. Tim managed to get a nice pic or two [3] of the comet. I managed to make out two points of light near the centre, I'm guessing that they were stars shining through.
