Saw it
 Went up to the Papal Cross to have a look. Pretty cloudy skies but managed to spot it just after 8. |

Was hoping to catch a glimse of the comet 'C/2011 L4 Pan-Starrs' tonight
 Unfortunately it's snowing here  Hopefully I'll catch a glimpse tomorrow. The 12 and 13 March could provide the best viewing opportunity. At this time,
it will move further from the Sun, but should be easier to spot in the night
sky, providing it is a clear night.
"After sunset, scan the horizon roughly in the western direction. On the 12 and 13 March, there is a nice association with the thin crescent Moon," advised Prof Bailey. "You can use the Moon as a guide, and search just down or to the left of the Moon. Through binoculars you should be able to see the head of the comet and certainly the two types of the tail."

Good man Podge. Will keep an eye out if the clouds don't obsure visibility this time.
@nvidic: Didn't see that show but I have no doubt this venture will not get off the ground

I'm a bit confused, are they saying that it will be funded by selling the TV rights to the selection of the astronauts and coverage of the mission?
I can't see how they'll get $6bn from TV rights.

This Mars One thing must be a joke.
They are a private company from the Netherlands, they have no spaceflight experience & haven't even sent up so much as a weather balloon or a satellite, they seem to be allowing any joe soap to apply while every space agency will only send someone into Space with a Science or Engineering degree & usually experience in an air force and a huge amount of their funding is coming from a reality tv show. & they expect to land on Mars in 10 years  |
