I don’t know what light pollution is like where you are, but getting to a place where there is very little light pollution and a clear night is going to be as important as what you are looking at the comet through. The moon is getting out of the way and there’s a good chance at a place with very little light pollution and clear skies you’ll be able to see it with ordinary binoculars or just the naked eye. Also of note is that being at a location like that before sunrise is going to be awesome on its own. It’s also a great time to see satellites passing overhead because the soon to be rising sun will be reflecting off the satellites but the sky will still be pitch black. There are great satellite tracking apps and night sky apps that will help you with where to look for the comet, satellites and other celestial objects. Good luck!

I think you’ll be good! Definitely for satellites.

This is the app I was talking about. I think it was a couple bucks….it’s cool and the same company makes a night sky one but it’s a little more money.
