| Experienced Member | Jay, Well, I live in Arizona so it happened around 11:00 last night :lol: I'm not sure where you live, it matters becuase I couldn't see the comet becuase it was too close to the horizen. Although I was watching the NASA channel last night and they should the pictures from when it happened. D.J.

| Experienced Member | I think the further south you are the better you can see it. They said Hawwii had the best view so you probably wouldn't even be able to see the comet. I couldn't even see the comet it was soo small. And the probe that collided was only the size of a washing machine. D.J.
