Please can someone help me? I need to find references to the major comet sightings in the year 1506. Is there a compendium of such things, and if so what is it called. Does anyone know of ANY comet sightings in the early 16th century. I have been asked by a historian to calculate the countries in which a comet would be visible given that it was visible in Britain at a particular date. His reference does not specify in which constellation the comet was seen in 1506, hence my question.
