I am a total astro neophyte that cannot either obtain
the answer (or understand the answer) to this simple
question:
   I will be in Isreal on February 12, and anticipate
   viewing conditions to be better than where I live
   (Northern NJ).  If my premises are correct, where/
   when/how do I spot and photograph Halley's Comet?
   (I know how to do successful star trail photos,
    so I only need detailed location info).
Is it possible to layout a crude starmap as part of
the response?
Thanks in advance.
