Since no one has posted this. (My apologies if someone has and I missed it) Comet Ison is just about to round the sun. You can watch it here
NASA's Solar Observing Fleet Watch Comet ISON's Journey Around the Sun almost as live as the scientists studying it.
Or here: Soho Hotshots.
Or here: SDO Views Comet ISON
From the last link:
On November 28, 2013, the SDO (Solar Dynamics Observatory) spacecraft will off-point at three different positions as Comet ISON moves through perihelion. This website will display near realtime images and movies of this sungrazing comet. Images should begin appearing sometime between 12:45 pm and 1:00 pm ET.
