If we’re lucky, this comet may turn out to be one of the more amazing sky phenomena witnessed in the last few *generations* on Earth. Everything depends on how much of this comet gets vaporized by the Sun…
„By late November, Comet Ison will be visible to the unaided eye just after dark in the same direction as the setting Sun. Its tail could stretch like a searchlight into the sky above the horizon. Then it will swing rapidly around the Sun, passing within two million miles of it, far closer than any planet ever does, to emerge visible in the evening sky heading northward towards the pole star. It could be an „unaided eye” object for month.”
