Has anyone seen Comet Panstarrs yet ? It's around  mag. 9 and brightening - very well placed.

I have seen it twice now. Nice compact comet, showing clear coma and stubby tail

I saw it for the 3rd time last night. I managed to pick it up with my ED120 refractor. Mag 9 or 9.5 sounds right. It's compact and does not jump right out at you with a low power eyepiece but looks better at medium powers. A sort of teardrop shaped smudge of light brighter towards the center.
