SkySafari 5 Pro | Comet Heinze Data Incorrect

I'm using SS 5 Pro on Android and Comet Heinze seems to be in the wrong location.  I was out last night observing and used SS to get right on where the comet was supposed to be and could see nothing from a dark site w/ a 12" or 20" scope.  Looking this morning, other charts and locations I could find on the web disagreed with the object path in SS.  I had also made sure the data was the most up-to-date before starting the search.  Thanks!

    Chris,

    Sorry for not responding sooner.  Are you still seeing a problem?  I just checked the Android SkySafari predictions with what the Minor Planet Center is saying and they agree.

    Yes, they appear to be matching up with the MPC now.  I'll try looking for it next time I'm out.  Thanks Bill!
