MORNING COMET: A new comet is emerging in the morning sky: Comet Pojmanski has been brightening since its discovery in January and can now be found just east of Venus before sunrise. It looks like a slightly fuzzy blue star of magnitude 5; binoculars reveal a small tail. A good morning to look is Monday, Feb. 27th, when the comet glides by the double star Algedi.
