I was presently surprised by Comet Holmes. But, it has left me wondering about other know comets and when and where they may be paying a vist to the inner solar system. Can someone recommend good resource for tracking these objects?

Hi Enrique,

Here is one website that I use a lot: http://www.aerith.net/

A wonderful resource for the comet observer.

Cheers,
