This will here soon.
Add it to your observing lists. Should be interesting to see if it will brighten enough to be a naked eye comet. It should easily be in reach of binoculars and small scopes during the closest pass.

One to look out for! I've just put it into Stellerium, should be easy to find as it's sitting about 1° below Vega tonight.
Cheers Clinton.

Already starting to see images of the comet over on Twitter.
Looking forward to seeing what our members come up with!

Re: Comet P12/Pons-Brookes.
Saw a report of this comet flaring up again, possibly at mag 10?
This will be for our northern hemisphere crowd, it's currently sitting nicely between Cygnus and Lyra.
Hopefully we can see a few pics from ourAP boys and girls!?
You now have two comets within camera reach and with right conditions and scope in visual reach.
