How to Spot Comet PANSTARRS in March

Find Comet PANSTARRs in the twilight sky

Based on global reports from Saturday, March 9, it seems that no one is reporting success yet seeing the comet from the Northern Hemisphere.

One of the easiest evenings to find it may be Tuesday night March 12, when it’s essentially just to the left of the setting thin crescent moon, and very close to due west.  On our arrival date for the Death Valley workshop this week March 13, the crescent moon will be easier to spot and the comet will be below the moon and slightly to the right.
