> Just a quick note:
>
> There seems to be a GREAT comet in the western sky at this moment
> in Beijing. In binocular it is very spectacular with a bright
> fan-like tail generally toward the anti-solar direction. The total
> magnitude may be 0 or -1 so something like that. I have contacted
> my colleagues in the western part of city of Beijing and they have
> confirmed the findings. Meanwhile, the staff in Xinglong station,
> National Astronomical Observatories of China, also reported to me
> that they see the same bright object. We are managing to take CCD
> images and spectrum of that. But this may be difficult since it is
> very low and still setting.
