Finally saw Comet Neowise

About a week ago, sitting with my binoculars in a well-lit parking lot in the middle of a well-lit city, I was finally able to see Comet Neowise.

According to the LA Times, "Comet NEOWISE is made of equal parts dust and water. NASA scientists estimate the liquid part as the equivalent of '13 million Olympic swimming pools of water.'” All that water, and not a drop to drink!

  1. Glad you got to see it! Wonder what your experience would have been like in a darker environment.
