Hi Jim-
I went out to image it Monday evening, about 6 degrees off the horizon over
Phoenix! The result isn't worth mentioning here after J.D.'s great image, but
it was visible in binoculars. If you go to Heavens-above, they list it as 7.5,
which I can believe. Note that only a week or two ago they had it listed as
closer to 10th, so they recently must have upgraded the brightness from the
nuclear magnitude...

J.D., Great image! Can you elaborate on the equipment you used and the current
magnitude of PANSTARRS?
Thanks,
Jim
