Hello shooting star devotees and comet origin  enigmaticists,

Just an update on the great surprise comet of  2006,
C/2006 M4 (SWAN), discovered by Rob Matson by early July...

We  are in bright Moonlight at the first quarter and Rob's comet continues to
be  nicely visible from suburban or reasonable urban areas.

Today is Astronomy Day in Denver and every year the members of Astronomy  
Society of Denver set up their telescope in the park around the Chamberlain  
Observatory. There were probably some 30 telescopes there tonight, hard to  tell 
in the dark, and they were all pointed at the Comet. Even the Chamberlain's  
110 years old brass telescope was pointed that way. Take a look at  this:
