Cloud Cover Blocked Comet Viewing, But...

Last night's plan was to sit out and do some comet-watching.

In case you didn't know, a comet, Comet NEOWISE, that was discovered in March, is visible with binoculars or a telescope in the northwestern sky. It is below the Big Dipper after sundown.

Unfortunately, that plan was thwarted by cloud cover. I'll try again tonight.

EarthSky posted information on how to see Comet NEOWISE. To access it, go here.

At least I was able to take a little drive over to Six Mile Canyon in the Jeep after dinner.
