Hello, I wanted to use WWT to try and track Comet Lulin from bogota, colombia.

But can't find this object. I know it's rather new, any way that I can upload this comment?

Thanks,

I second the desire to see Lulin - from my city the light pollution is just too much to actually see it with binoculars (believe me I tried)

Try the FLickr Astrometry.net pool http://www.flickr.com/groups/astrometry/

You can see a history of Lulin thru images as it crosses the sky. In our next release we will publish the MPC and Comet database on-line so you can track comets with the time slider..
