Please see update from comet specialist Southern Comets HomepageThere has been a lot of misinformation circulating around social and news media about the “devil comet” best visible this weekend.Please call it by its proper name “12P Pons-Brooks”.Although Pons-Brooks is brightest this weekend as it reaches its closest point to the Sun, it is a difficult object low in evening twilight.It is not visible to the naked eye, due to the effect of atmospheric extinction at such a low altitude.You will require a pair of binoculars and a clear horizon to the west. Look 1 to 1.5 hrs after sunset. Approximately 7pm AEST.Conditions will improve however, and from April 27 the comet will move away from twilight and full moon will no longer interfere. See southerncomets.infoThis image of 12P Pons-Brooks taken on 2024 April 20 at 09:00UT using a Canon 6D + Sigma 200mm. 3 mins. FOV 10 deg. North lower left. from Swan Hill, Victoria, Australia.
