![]() NASA’s Bob Behnken captured an image of Neowise and shared the picture on social media. “So I wouldn’t suggest waiting for the next pass,” said Joe Masiero of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory.Īstronauts on the International Space Station caught a good look at the bright ice-rock last week.

So the few days might be your last chance to see the comet before it fades out of sight. It will then start making its way back to the outer parts of the solar system. Comet NEOWISE last entered the solar system about 4,500 years ago and will not reappear for another 6,800. Neowise is expected to be seeable across the Northern Hemisphere until mid-August. But devices like binoculars and telescopes are better for viewing the comet’s long tail. People have been able to see the head of the comet without the use of equipment. Comet NEOWISE or C/2020 F3 is seen in the sky, above the Seven Magic Mountains art installation by artist Ugo Rondinone, in Jean, Nevada on July 15, 2020. This week, the comet began making its appearance in the evening sky shortly after sunset. Comet Neowise has a nucleus measuring roughly 5 kilometers (3 miles) in diameter, and its dust and ion tails stretch hundreds of thousands to millions of kilometers while pointing away from the Sun. Until recently, the best time to see Neowise was about an hour before sunrise. It passed closest to the Sun on July 3 and its closest approach to Earth will occur on July 23. The Comet Neowise or C/2020 F3 is seen before sunrise over Balatonmariafurdo, Hungary, Tuesday, July 14, 2020.
