Now at new moon it suits very well, says Eric Stempels, researcher at the Department of Physics and Astronomy in Uppsala, but adds that it is difficult to get a glimpse of the comet with the naked eye.
But just like with the northern lights, if you use a mobile camera and take an exposure of a few seconds, then you probably have a chance to capture that blurry spot in the picture.
Especially around Tuesday this week, when there is a new moon, there will be good conditions to catch a glimpse of the comet. Those who want to see the comet should bring their mobile phone to a place far from city lights and aim the mobile camera at the constellation Charles' Wain. Eric Stempels says you should look beside the constellation.
You can say behind Charles' Wain, where the "handle" sticks out.
