I recommend IRIS. It's tricky to learn the process, but it produces much better results.

Yes, IRIS is good for it too. In fact there's a bunch of other software as well. Just use the one You know best.

Yeah, try it. It's fun!

ohhh~ I don't think I was able to see the comet *forgot the name*. I'm surrounded by trees and houses. *should try looking for it if it's still out*

It's off now. Still about -3 to -4 mag. Brighter than Venus, but in a position that makes it invisible for people on north hemi.
