Een paar dagen geleden is er een nieuwe komeet ontdekt die volgend jaar erg dicht in de buurt komt. Kan spectaculair worden.

Calculations show that Comet ISON will pass less than two million km from the Sun at perihelion on 28 November, 2013, which is incredibly close, and could then reach a brilliant negative magnitude of between -11 and -16. That would put it between 100 and a few thousand times brighter than Venus, which is mag -5 at brightest, though its proximity to the Sun might make it difficult to see at its most brilliant. (The Full Moon is around mag -12.7).
