Yep. Shows up great with Starry Night Pro Plus. All you need to do is download the most recent comet/asteroid files, which the program should ask you about at startup. If you do not have those files, there is no way you will see C/Lulin.

I've tried and had no luck. I even copied comet information from Starry Nights data and imported it into my comet txt. file. Customer service hasn't returned a e-mail from 3 weeks ago concerning this problem. This version doesn't seem to update this comet and I have my reservations now if it's correctly updating other comets and asteroids correctly. Martin

Hi John,
Try the program again. This morning like magic it was updated along with the normal updates. Martin
