Comet C/2021 A1 Leonard

This and next month is worthwhile to have a look at the morning sky. Look in the east for Comet C/2021 A1 Leonard. Current best estimates predict magnitude below 6 (beginning of december) meaning the comet is visible with the naked eye.

Some nice conjunctions between the Comet and Deepsky objects which can be photgraphed or visual observed :

- November 19 : together with NGC4399 and NGC4400
- November 23-25 : together with galaxies Hockeystick (NGC4657) and Whale (NGC4631)
- November 30 : together with 7 NGC objects 
- December 3 : together with globular Cluster M3

Succes and clear skies!
