Comet for March Viewing - Pan Starrs

[Channel Hopper]

The moon moves up to the left in relation to the horizon, the comet moves up and to the right.

I was driving earlier tonight, and it was cloudy to the West, so no chance to stop off.

It is a disappointing comet so far in the UK.

Somebody in Manchester got an image of it

I managed to see it through the binocs this evening

Just after 7pm, and 45 degrees below and to the right of the moon. Distances are difficult of course, but if you stretched your arm out it would have been a good handspan away from the moon. Easy through the binocs, although definitely not naked eye before it disappeared behing the local hills.
