Get ready stargazers, a once-in-a-lifetime phenomenon is about to occur!
đź’ˇA recently-discovered green comet will pass through the sky for the first time in 50,000 years and may be visible to the naked eye under the right conditions.
Whenâť“
👉The comet reached its closest point to the sun on January 12. Observers in the Northern Hemisphere may be able to see it during early mornings in January, while those who are in the Southern Hemisphere can view it at the beginning of February when it makes its closest pass of Earth, which will be around 26 million miles away.
Howâť“
You’ll likely need binoculars or a telescope, and to head to a rural area to avoid the city’s light pollution.
