Details:
At last a chance to see Comet Neowise and it did not disappoint. Naked eye visible at 02:45 BST and spectacular in 10x42 binoculars. Even better against the Noctilucent Clouds. By 03:45 BST it was lost amongst the brightening sky so viewing about two and half hours before sunrise gave the best view.
Not only the comet and electric blue clouds but Venus, Mars, half Moon, Saturn, Jupiter and 03:13 BST ISS fly by - a brilliant start to the day!
