10/26/2007 - OH, TO SPOT A COMET

Even a casual observer can't miss Comet 17/P (Holmes) as it appears to be a bright, fuzzy dot to the northeast, in the constellation Perseus. Visible after sunset and throughout the night, this is a spectacular sight that doesn't even require a telescope. Grab your binoculars and delight your kids with the sight of this celestial visitor!
