Binocular View

A sneak peek inside the Gondwana Stars Observatory as the sky darkens during set up for a star tour.

Comet Swan C/2020 F8

A morning comet in the sky before dawn. This is Comet C/2020 F8, recently discovered and currently brightening up as it approaches the Sun. This might be bright enough to see without binoculars in the coming weeks. I particularly like the green coma and tail of this comet.
