Hey, it's #Comet day!

Today's the first chance of seeing C/2023 A3 in the evening sky, although to be clear I'm not hopeful. It's still very close to the sun, which is famous for being very bright, so odds are that it won't penetrate the glow of twilight. But you never know, so I'll be out this evening with binoculars and camera looking for it.

If we don't find it, we try again tomorrow, and the night after. It's moving through the sky rapidly enough that you'll need a fresh map each night, but those are easy to find online (search for "C/2023 A3 finder chart" or something), or just get an up-to-date app.

Here's a pair of charts for tonight, in Gauteng, South Africa, generated by Stellarium. First is daytime, so you can see where it is relative to the Sun, and the second is in evening twilight so you can compare it to stars and star-like objects (like Venus).

Note that the view from different continents will be rotated somewhat, so I recommend finding charts suitable for your one location
