Any comets worth trying for in 2014?


Recommended Posts

Missed out on Ison and Lovejoy. Been doing a little digging and see that 2 comets may give us some good glimpes in the upcoming months.

LINEAR is headed this way (from what I understand) and should be closest to the earth in June.

PANSTARRS is also headed this way and should be closest in November.

Just wondering if what I saw should be taken to heart as ISON was supposed to be so spectacular but most people found Lovejoy to be better.

Would love to see my first comet in a scope or bins.

Yup. I saw Lovejoy from a light polluted town centre in my 10" a few weeks back, and C/2012 K1 Panstarrs too, though very faint. I'd have had C/2012 X1 Linear too, except for a tree… I'll revisit them in a couple of weeks when somewhere darker.
