Space/Science » in reply to Vega and 73P-B tonight!

Found it with binoculars

Just came home from the ball game and decided to see if I could find 73p-B with the binoculars and did.
If you are up and want to see it, here’s what to do.
Find Vega the brightest star in the ENE sky about 40 degrees high.
With binoculars you should see two fairly bright stars very close together in view with Vega in view.
Draw a line from Vega to the two stars and straight to a fuzzy patch about two-thirds the distance the two stars are from Vega.

The gibbous moon doesn’t help but you can see it.
