Description:
Words can't adequately describe what was visible in the western sky after sunset tonight. The dusty wisps of Comet McNaught’s tail filled the sky like auroral streamers, easily visible to the unaided eye. I said my goodbyes to the comet last Saturday January 15 after seeing it with the unaided eye in the daytime. Tonight, I feel like I was visited by the ghost the comet!
