Comet NEOWISE will be faint, but possibly visible with the naked eye... easily visible with binoculars. Take a good look, won't be back for... like... 6000 years.

Pity the full moon will block most of them from being seen.

Check the time for moonrise in your area on the 11th and 12th.
For instance, moonrise isn't until after midnight up here, which should leave a few hours to observe the shower in total darkness.

Moonrise at 8:53pm central time here. Sigh.

Looks like a good night on the deck with some cocktails.

Fuck that. The more I let thru, the less I have to deal with around here.

The wife and I went out twice to see this comet but just couldnt seem to find a good vantage point.We even went to a point that's the highest around here but the horizon was blocked and we didnt get a chance to see it.
The meteor shower is a different story,should be able to see it as we watched it last year,just need to get out of the city so the lights dont interfere.I'm sure rusty will be along to tell me some reason it wont work.
