Comet McNaught And I
The last couple of nights have seen my partner and I out on a high spot near where we live checking out the latest, and brightest, wanderer into our view. Comet McNaught (yay for Coonanbarabran astronomers) has been very visible just after dark, but alas low cloud over the Blue Mountains has meant that seeing it actually “set” has not been possible.
But fear not, here is a movie we took tonight of the comet for those that have missed it.
The tools used were a pair of 12 x 80 binoculars on a tripod and a Sanyo Xacti CA6 digital video camera. ANd for all you visitors to this blog to see this, please head on over to my MS donation page, the Great NetXperiment to contribute to finding a cure, and cause for this baffling disease.
