Heads up for any of you astrophotographers with scopes - if you want a
challenge with the Ring Nebula, check this out...
====================
(From SpaceWeather.com)

PHOTO OP: On May 7th, the biggest fragment of dying comet
73P/Schwassmann Wachmann 3 will glide by the Ring Nebula in Lyra. The
view through backyard telescopes should be wonderful. This is an
opportunity for astrophotographers to take some rare photos of a comet
and a planetary nebula side by side.

Visit //spaceweather.com for sky maps and more information.

====================
If anyone gives it a shot, please share the results if you have the chance.

Best of luck!
