Yip that should make a great photo opp for sure. A nice target for you CCD imagers out there and if you do get a capture dont forget to send them into spaceweather.com!

Good luck

Spotted that before, but you beat me to posting it Trevor! :P

As I have the clubs new 12" Dob at the moment, I plan to keeping it in time for this encounter! Perhaps a spell of projection photography is on the cards that night?? :)
