"Observing and Photographing Comet Pons Brookes"

Here we have a very interesting report from OzEclipse (Joe) who focused on Comet Pons Brookes using two different pairs of binoculars. As he points out, the image was similar in both pairs despite differences in aperture because of the similarity of exit pupils.

By comparing the comet's brightness to the magnitude of known stars he was able to arrive at a figure for Pons Brookes integrated magnitude which was quite clever.

Congratulations Joe on a fine report plus some awesome photographs.

Here folks we have the winner of the VROD for today!
