Newly discovered Comet NEOWISE dazzles skywatchers as it streaks past Earth.
For the next week or so, a newly-discovered comet will be visible
in the northern sky during a visit to Earth’s celestial neighborhood,
a galactic snowball with a double-forked tail that has been putting
on a dazzling show just before sunrise but will move to just after sunset this week.
This is the only debut the comet will make until its return in the year 8786.
