A newly discovered comet will soon be gracing our evening sky.
On Sept. 10, Vladimir Bezugly of Dnipro, Ukraine was examining online images of a low-resolution public website showing images obtained during Sept. 5-9 with the Solar Wind Anisotropies (SWAN) camera on the Solar and Heliospheric Observer (SOHO) spacecraft. That's when he discovered a moving object, resembling a bright blob, close the sun. The blob turned out to be a comet. A bright comet.
