Deze komeet is verrassend helder geworden, op dit moment rond magnitude 8. Zie hier een opname van Gerald Rhemann, remote met 12″-telescoop in Namibië op 16 oktober:
De komeet stijgt nu snel in het sterrenbeeld Orion naar het noorden. Je zal hem in de volgende dagen ook bij ons met behulp van een klein- tot middelgroot telescoop kunnen waarnemen.
