PAN-STARR Comet Reminder

  • Padme-1 by Padme-1

    Hello,Just thaught I would give a shout out to all us North Americans that it is our turn to see PAN-STARR just after sunset in the western sky on March 9th.This will be the only time we will be able to see the comet with our naked eye. - Happy comet hunting!
