Reports Report 3363d (Event 3363-2020)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Jordan B |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I was driving just about to pass Mt. Hebron High School on my right when I saw it in front of me to the left. The comet was not moving across the horizon but was moving away from me, in my direction. This would imply it was moving West. This was my first experience viewing a comet specifically so while it felt long, in reality it was likely only a second or two. |
