Closest comet to pass by Mars and earth in a million years .... I think we will be able to see it from North America , but Australia will get the best view .... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... s-Sun.html |

. From what I understand the comet passes around Mars at 11:28 AM Pacific time , 2:28 PM Eastern time , Oct 19th and can be seen with binoculars or a scope , Australia (Southern Hemisphere) is the best place to see it I am going to try spot it tomorrow around noon .... NASA hopes to get video from Mars satellites so it should be on the news later. http://mars.nasa.gov/comets/sidingspring/ |
