What I would like to know is for a given date where in the world would I be able to see the comet and how bright would it be and where in the sky will it be? Then if necessary I can have a holiday in a place where I can see it.
It will be very difficult to do that as there is no knowing how bright a comet will be.
Comet McNaught was no expected to be a once in a lifetime show- but it was.
This is what we saw when we walked out on the beach in Hermanus South Africa.

Because there is no knowing how much gas will come off a comet it cannot be predicted long in advance - WHERE to see it can be.
