All for McNaught
Yesterday, QuarkNet mentor Helio Takai of the Brookhaven-Stony Brook center took this picture of comet McNaught, which is now visible especially at dusk just after the sun sets. This Space.com article tells you more about the comet and how to spot it:
The Great Comet of 2007.
No word from Dr. Takai yet on whether he's been able to get evidence of a passive radar signal bouncing off the comet.

set against the horizon.
Magnified detail.
