    Southern hemispherians got the excellent Comet Holmes a while ago. We can only hope that us unfortunate northern hemispherians will get some great comets soon.

    Comet Lulin is approaching and should be visible (with bino's, and hopefully the naked eye) towards the end of the month.

    Also see this month's Sky At Night programme for some more info about when and where to look for it
    and in Ian Morison's "The Night Sky" section in the February Jodcast of course!!
