17P/Holmes

Some times Py does no work and not bike... and explores things above like the amazing 17P/Holmes, an old Comet, unexpectedly getting much brigher and looking like a really cool fuzz ball on the sky. Just look out north, about 45 degrees (8pm) above the horizon (around 8pm..11pm is a good time) in the sky in Perseus, close to Mirfak, there you can spot with the naked eye a blurry fuzzy object, it is the Comet 17P/Holmes.

Here a few photographs:
