I was able to view this comet using Levenhuk Sherman Pro 6.5×32 binoculars and a homemade reflecting telescope with an aperture of 200 mm. Through binoculars, the comet is clearly visible as a small speck with a bright nucleus. The tail was visible through the telescope, both with direct and lateral vision. Interesting comet.
