I had a backup plan in case it broke up or vaporized in order to see the cloud it would leave behind, but it looks like such extreme measures may not be necessary and I may be able to capture it with my scope. I still think it's hard to say just how bright it will be, the real test will be to watch STEREO-B for re-emergence on COR2. I'm still skeptical, but I'm hoping to see something even brighter than when it went behind the sun.
