I had the opportunity to observe the periodic comet 65P/Gunn on a couple of occasions last month at the Laurel Highlands Star Cruise. At the time (late June) it was situated between the globular clusters M54 and M70 in Sagittarius. The comet was a rather difficult target through my friend Tony Donnangelo's 14.5" Starmaster and had the smallest coma that I've ever seen.
