Here is a quick sketch I made at 11:03 tonight of Comet Lulin as it passes by Saturn. I used a 4.25″ Astroscan telescope at about 50x for the sketch. The comet appeared as a dim, oval- shaped patch oriented roughly east-west. The little scope was bouncing in the breeze and I couldn’t detect any detail in the comet. It appeared uniform in brightness to me.
