>comet that’s only visible at sundown and sunrise
/sci/ anons can’t make time for this. sundown is when we are busy making IQ posts and 5am is right when we’re trying to get to sleep after a hard night of IQ posting

i saw it this evening, but it was just on the edge of perception. i need to find an area with less light pollution. what's funny is i was observing it easily with the naked eye a week and a half ago before dawn over a lit parking lot

It was quite a lot smaller than I thought it'd be.

I watched it through a telescope on Friday in northern Germany and it was very foggy, could barely see it with the naked eye. A few days earlier it was easier to see.
Also saw Mars for the first time and got very nice views of Saturn and Jupiter. Could even see Titan and Jupiter moons. Honestly more impressive than Neowise but that one was still cool.

There's a thread in >>>/p/ with a lot of good photos.

>>11917878
It's definitely gotten dimmer as time has gone by, due to it moving away from the sun. It's dropped two whole magnitudes since when you saw it previously.

>>11917962
You can still see it in the evenings, after roughly 10:30 PM. But you'll probably need binoculars or a really dark sky to see it.

about 20 miles away from one of the worst light pollution zones. Spotted with my camera first, then it became visible about 10 minutes later. I'm pretty sure it's easier to see if you're further North, though.

I've seen it a number of times, most of them in attempts to show other people.
