@warkolm@aus.social @futzle@old.mermaid.town The S50 should find it by itself; go to star gazing mode, select comets, choose 2025R3.
Once it’s going you can aim the binoculars along the scope.
Also, once it’s going to can stop it, then drag the field of view in the star atlas a bit so you get more tail. It should label the comet in that view at that stage.

@cafuego@misanthrope.social thanks, I think the naming system has thrown me in the past as I have put the full (eg) C/2025 R3 in and it's never found it
