Comet Holmes

Lang and I discussed the possibility that we could infer the orbit of Comet Holmes from a Yahoo! image search. The images found that way, when put through Astrometry.net, trace out the orbit beautifully!

    I mean, to see it if you have a powerful telescope? And would it still be in the same location in the sky (approximately)?
