Green asteroid?.

[Britchick]

Did I read there is going to be one that can be seen soon?

[Skywatcher]

Hmm I'll have a look but by an large comets look green on photographs and to the naked eye, I have a feeling one is brightening

[Britchick]

I think I heard it on the radio, due to be at it's best on June 22nd

[Skywatcher]

think this might be what they are talking about

its not that bright - should see it with Bins but :fingers: it will brighten

Comet C/2009 R1 McNaught (http://www.heavens-above.com/comet.aspx?cid=C%2F2009%20R1&lat=0&lng=0&loc=Unspecified&alt=0&tz=CET)

[Britchick]

Where will I be able to see it?

[Skywatcher]

The kink should take you to a map of the sky. West at sunset. If I can find it I'll let you know


Clouded out here tonight
